Fab can go and other red-hot gossip
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger will not prevent midfield star Cesc Fabregas from leaving England to join Barcelona in the summer, according to Spanish newspaper Sport. Fabregas has been strongly linked with a £60m move to the Spanish giants, a club he spent six years at as a youngster. Elsewhere, big-spending Manchester City and Chelsea are on alert after Sevilla's Brazilian striker Luis Fabiano refused to rule out a move to the EPL; Chelsea are plotting a £70m spending spree this summer to rejuvenate their squad with Borussia Dortmund's Serbia centre-back Neven Subotic, winger Angel Di Maria of Benfica, Napoli midfielder Marek Hamsik and Bayern Munich midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger their main targets; and Sunderland striker Darren Bent has stopped using social networking site Twitter as it distracts him from playing.
