Arsenal skipper Cesc Fabregas will reportedly hold showdown discussions with manager Arsene Wenger on Thursday.

The long running transfer saga has been rolling swiftly in the recent past, with the player having been thought to have met Per Guardiola during the World Cup 2010. Meanwhile, several Barca players have publicly endorsed the campaign to take the Catalan club's youth product back to Camp Nou.

It is claimed by The Sun that the midfielder will hold discussions with his boss tomorrow, with his heart still set on a move to the Spanish giants.

However, it has been speculated that the 2009 European champions do not have the funds necessary to poach the player from north London this summer.

Wenger has also remained resolute in the past that Fabregas is not going to leave during the current transfer window.
