Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has insisted that he has no regrets over failing to sign Cesc Fabregas this past summer.
Fabregas made a return to English football this summer after a dismal time with boy-hood club Barcelona, but rather than join his former club Arsenal – the Spanish midfielder made a move to Stamford Bridge with Chelsea.
Having played for the Gunners for eight years, Fabregas revealed earlier this season, how his former club did not take up their option to re-sign him.
And, Arsenal boss Wenger insists that he made the correct choice in not doing so.
“I don’t regret not taking Cesc because we already had a lot of creative players in our midfield,” Wenger told beIN Sports.
“Chelsea will also have a difficult period [in the season]. Our schedule was extremely difficult and I have the belief that we can close the gap to them.”
