London: Manchester United offer £26m bid to Spanish International and Barcelona mid fielder Cesc Fadregas last night.
United’s offer is being considered but is understood to be below the Spanish club’s valuation of the player.
While Fabregas is not pushing for a move, it is believed he is open to a return to England.
Mid fielder 26 came through the Spanish club’s La Masia academy before Arsenal signed him as a 16-year-old in 2003 while he lead as a captain in November 2008 for the same club.
Spanish star spent eight years with the Gunners, playing 303 games and scoring 57 goals.
However, he returned to the Nou Camp when he signed a five-year deal with Barcelona in a £25.4m move in August 2011.
He has since helped the Catalan club win the Copa del Rey in 2011-12 and La Liga in 2012-13.
In two seasons with Barcelona, Fabregas has played 96 times including 60 league games, but has rarely featured in his preferred midfield role, with Xavi, 33, and Andres Iniesta, 29, ahead of him.
As far as Fabregas international carrier is concerned, he holds in also 83 caps for Spain while played an important part in winning the World Cup 2010 and European Championship twice.
