Arsenal chairman Hill-Wood: Barcelona Cesc saga a real BORE

Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood says no new offer fromBarcelona has arrived for Cesc Fabregas.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is keen to keep hold of Fabregas, but wants the transfer saga resolved one way or another before the new season starts.
Hill-Wood told the Daily Star: "I am not sure how keen they are. There are still stories in the (Spanish) press, but they don't talk to us.
"They've made one offer, which works out at around £26m, but that was ages ago. But at the moment our situation is very straightforward: we don't want to lose him.
"Obviously if they come up with an offer which was a very good offer we would have to think about it.
"We have told them a number of times that what they are proposing is unacceptable and yet they haven't moved on it.
"I don't approve of what they are doing, but unfortunately it seems the way of the world right now."
Hill-Wood admits he has become bored of the constant speculation surrounding Fabregas and a possible return to his hometown club.
"It has become a real bore and an unnecessary interruption to what we are trying to achieve," added Hill-Wood.
