Arsenal scout Francis Cagigao is in no doubt that the rumours linking Cesc Fabregas with a move back to Spain are ridiculous.
Cagigao discovered Fabregas as a youngster, and the scout, who is responsible for finding talented players in Spain and Portugal, was impressed as soon as he saw the young Catalan in action.
"All the fuss about Barcelona and Fabregas is simply an invention of the press, to engage in this type of speculation is absurd," he said, according to the Daily Mail.
"Even when he was 15 I was captivated by his intelligence. He was mature which is hard to find in young players. It seems he has GPS in his head."
Fabregas has publicly stated that current Barca coach Pep Guardiola was one of his boyhood idols, but Cagigao feels that Arsene Wenger works in a way which is not dissimilar.
"I think the philosophies of Wenger and Guardiola are similar in shaping what they want on the field," he added.
