I'm not joining Real - Cesc Thursday, August 07, 2008
Cesc Fabregas has denied recent reports quoting him revealing an interest in joining Real Madrid.
Reports emanating from Spain suggested Madrid president Ramon Calderon had lined up a big-money move for the 21-year-old after appearing to have missed out on signing Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
"I didn't tell Ramon Calderon no," it was reported Fabregas said.
"I told him that now wasn't the time to go to Madrid.
"That you are wanted by Madrid, one of the biggest teams in history, is important.
"To be four seasons without winning any titles would be too much for me."
But Fabregas insisted Monday that he said no such thing, not even speaking to the press.
"I have not spoken to any media so it's frustrating to read quotes that I have supposedly said about my future," Fabregas revealed.
"I have spent the summer relaxing with my family, friends and girlfriend and I return to training with Arsenal tomorrow.
"I think that some people are just trying to make mischief but my intentions are very clear. I am happy here at Arsenal, my future is with Arsenal and the priority is to achieve success and win trophies at Arsenal."
