Former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas has suggested on Twitter that he would rather retire than play for Tottenham Hotspur.
Fabregas was asked on Twitter by an Arsenal fan this afternoon if he would retire or play for Tottenham.
The Spanish midfielder, now on the books of AS Monaco in Ligue 1, has responded to the question, as shown below.
Okay, Fabregas has not given a direct answer, but we all know what he means.
The former European Championship and World Cup winner would rather retire than play for Spurs.
It is not common for players to turn out for both Arsenal and Tottenham.
Throw Chelsea into the mix, and it is impossible to see Fabregas ever join Spurs.
Not that Tottenham will ever want to sign the midfielder.
Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea all are bitter London rivals.
Yes, Olivier Giroud joined Chelsea from Arsenal not so long ago, but he did not play for Tottenham.
Now, Spurs fans will say that they do not ever want Fabregas.
Yes, the Spaniard was a great player, but that was several years ago.
Fabregas is now 34 and is past his prime.
Tottenham fans are not going to lose sleep over the fact that Fabregas does not want to play for their team.
