The return of Cesc Fabregas to Barcelona has produced mixed results.

Fabregas was a prodigy at Arsenal, but he hasn't developed a clear role back with Barça.

Arsenal and Manchester United have been informed that Fabregas could be made available.

United approached Barcelona about a move last summer, but Fabregas wasn't interested at that time.

Arsenal included a £23.6 million buy-back clause in the deal that took the former club captain back to Catalonia and manager Arsene Wenger is understood to have talked “quite a bit” on the phone with his old skipper about the possibility of a reunion.
