Inter Milan are already thinking about the January transfer window. The Italian giants want Arsenal’s Cesc Fabregas, according to local reports.
There’s a huge belief that the captain of the Gunners will not be seen at the Emirates next season following the transfer saga which involved Barcelona earlier this summer. It’s all but clear that Cesc Fabregas is hoping to quit Arsenal in the near future, and Champions League titleholders Inter Milan want the player’s departure from London to come up quicker than expected.

According to Tuttomercatoweb.com, the Nerazzurri are looking to capture the services of the Spanish midfielder in January. Napoli’s ex-chief, Pierpaolo Marino, was quoted as saying by the Italian media source:

“If [Coach] Benitez convinces his directors to listen, then two big transfers which didn’t work out in August could be ignited this time out. I’m talking about Fabregas of Arsenal [and Dirk Kuyt of Liverpool].”

Inter Milan had put their eyes on Cesc Fabregas last season as well, reports claimed. However, Arsenal’s Arsene Wenger resisted any offer in 2009, and even the player’s darling club – Barcelona – got their bids rejected this year. It looks like there’s only a slim chance for Inter Milan to acquire the services of the Gunners’ skipper.

However, a mega-deal could play the trick for Benitez’s side as contenders Barcelona will never spend “ridiculous” sums of money to sign Fabregas according to club president Sandro Rosell. Well, the January transfer window will tell us if the Italian champions will achieve their dream of signing the Arsenal midfielder.

In the meantime, Arsenal would be hoping to have Cesc Fabregas ready and focused as they need to get their English Premier League campaign back on track. The Gunners lost 2-0 to Chelsea before the international break. They will resume with a match at home to Birmingham City.
