Ex Barcelona and Chelsea star, Cesc Fabregas has come out to say that Pep Guardiola disappointed him years ago.
Fabregas recently revealed that he is yet to speak to the Spaniard since he left Barcelona and he does not know if the disappointment is mutual.
According to him, Pep was his idol since he was a child and he learnt a lot from him, but all that changed after he left Spain for the EPL several years back.
He added that Mourinho inspired him the most when he left Barca and they are still friends till now.
His words, “No, no, with Pep nothing at all.
“I don’t know if the disappointment with Pep is mutual. Things happened, but I prefer not to talk about it. Pep was my idol since I was a child. It is from him that I have learned the most, perhaps, since I was four until now.”
“Mourinho inspired me the most when I left Barca,”
“He told me that we had had our issues on the pitch when he was at Chelsea and I was at Arsenal and then when he was coaching at Real Madrid and I was at Barcelona, but that for him, it all ended there. We turned the page.”
“He told me about his project. I had to go where I thought I would do best, the decision was mine and it didn’t depend on what people said. I prioritised the professional [aspect], and today I still write to him and I consider him a friend.
“He helped me a lot at a difficult time in my career and perhaps I played one of my best seasons with him.”
