Barcelona President, Sandro Rosell believes Cesc Fabregas is worth less than he was last summer. The Gunners skipper has been a transfer target for Barcelona, for a long time.
The closest transfer deal that could have taken place was in 2010, when the Catalan giants offered to pay €40m (£35m) for the services of Fabregas.
The deal could not materialize, because Arsenal coach, Arsene Wenger, persuaded the player to stay.
Barcelona are, however, now of the opinion that Fabregas value has diminished and claim they will not be making a similar offer this time around, if they bid at all.
Rosell said, "If last summer we offered €40m for Cesc, and since there has been wear and tear, now he's worth less."
