The CRAZIEST and most DRAINING transfer saga: Fabregas to FC Barcelona
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 чер 2024
- Three years of courting, public statements of intent, and accusations of “tapping up” ended with Cesc Fabregas finally joining FC Barcelona in 2011. Having gone through La Masia with FC Barcelona and having grown up as a supporter of the club, the yearning to return to Barcelona and their super team was understandable. However, the way that Barcelona went about their pursuit of Fabregas was out of this world: constant quotes from players such as Xavi, Iniesta, Messi, Puyol and Pique; constant quotes from Laporta and Sandro Rosell. It was perhaps the most public pursuit ever, with Barcelona not trying to hide their intentions at all, or that they had been in contact with the player when they didn’t have permission to be.
Then, of course, there was the 2010 FIFA World Cup and the Barcelona shirt incident, as some of the FC Barcelona contingent forced a Barça kit onto Fabregas during the celebrations. This was a wild time, and Arsenal fans would have been happy it finally ended when it did (despite losing a great talent).

Did you say Farcelona at one point? If so, very well done 😂
Cesc's transfer affected both clubs a lot. Barca lost Thiago because of him and Arsenal lost their captain.
Thiago wanted to go out of Barcelona way before Fabregas came so not really
As an Arsenal fan, I absolutely love Cesc. But this whole situation was ridiculous and left a very bitter taste. What Arsenal or Barca did or didn’t do in this saga is debatable, but some of the things the Barca players did and said…just wow! Disrespectful and distasteful imo.
Forget Barca players. How about other players in the Spanish national squad joining in on the act. Reina for example forcing Cesc to wear the Barca shirt after they won the World Cup.
What an unclassy thing to do from the players of a so called classy club in barcelona. They have always been hypocrites with a houlier than thou attitude
@@rockydongre they are a so classless club it still annoys me what they did to Dortmmund and Liverpool
@@masecaccm8372keep crying kid
@@yao052Reina came from the Barca academy, so makes sense that he wanted to put that shirt on him. There weren't any other aside from those with Barca allegiance that did this.
Xavi talking about players from other clubs has more tradition than RB Leipzig😂
Not cool😂
Fabregas won a ton at Barcelona but it always strikes me how while they were ofc the strongest club in the world when he joined, as well as reigning European champions, he never won the UCL in his 3 years at the club, then the season right after Fabregas left, they won it again!
Unlucky, the same fate also befell Alexis Sanchez
Zlatan with Inter vibes. Left to win the champions league at Barcelona in a swap deal with Eto'o.
Eto'o and Mourinho knock out Zlatans Barca and win the CL
Frl tho. I thought he would be with us one more season to take another crack at the UCL.
Just unlucky as well as some Managerial Term Oil with the Tito Situation.
Agüero with man city and with Argentina
One of the reasons why Arsenal fans hate Barcelona. We all knew he was gonna end up there at some point - but the lack of respect shown by the entire Spanish club ultimately caused Fabregas to go on strike and forced Arsenal to accept a lower bid. It was also at a time when they ware buying a lot of Arsenal's standout players, like Hleb and Song.
This tactic has also become a standard way of doing business for Barcelona: "we don't have the money/don't want to spend much but we still will let everyone know that we want a certain player".
Can't blame them for it though. It's not their fault that they were successful and had plenty of pulling power. They didn't need to pay the full price of the asking clubs because they made the player want the move as well. Especially when the club in question is one with limited success at that time like Arsenal
Fabergas is really underrated man. One of the best midfielders of the last generation without a doubt
Fabregas was superb, but it feels like he underachieved a lot.
He was a top Premier League player as a teenager, had this huge transfer to Barcelona, ready to become their next great midfielder, then, yeah, he suddenly joined Chelsea, had one last top season there and left top teams pretty early. He was barely 30 when he started to decline.
While guys like Modric are not the norm, Xavi and Iniesta were still playing at the highest level when Fabregas was leaving the PL for the second time. Fabregas is 36 and hasn't played top football (Ligue 1 included) for what? 2 years?
He was great, but he could've been more.
@@calamortai reckon he is retired now, mate
No. There is doubt. Serious doubt.
As an Arsenal fan, this video brought back all the triggering memories from back in the day. The insane sense of entitlement of barcelona as a club and their fanbase because of their success back then - this is exactly why I myself (and many others) have rejoiced their recent humiliations and look forward to the day they eventually bankrupt themselves on their current trajectory!
Yeah because you’re club is a bottle job that will never win a UCL or probably another PL
Small club mentality
They’re a pathetic club, I can’t wait for their inevitable financial meltdown that’s coming
and Barcelona just won the league and Arsenal still havent since Arsenal’s Fabregas era
Looks like you'll be waiting to rejoice and arsenal go back to being a 4th place team again
This saga still hurts until today as an Arsenal fan 😪
I enjoy clowning Arsenal but I have to admit they have been through a lot in the past 20 years. If Henry + Ashley Cole had Stayed and they had gotten Makelele they might have made another CL run during 2006-2011.
This Fabregas saga was heart breaking. He was my favourite player growing up, the pedestal we put him on post invincibles was almost to the level of Thierry’s and he showed no reciprocal love or respect for Wenger or the Arsenal fans who adored him.
If Fabregas had gone for 60+ million or so, then I'd have been fine with it. He was an equal to Ronaldo at one point based on goals and assists, and you see how much Ronaldo was sold for. But the constant tapping up by his teammates talking about Barca DNA turned his head and he got his move, on the cheap.
Hey Rabona just wanted to say ever since you've changed the channel format to more documentary stuff rather than wknd recap i find myself coming back alot more often. I think alot of people will agree
It used to be mostly documentaries but I think he tried to spice things up.
This saga still stresses me out till today as an Arsenal fan
Fabregas was an amazing player. Unfortunately for him, his legacy took a hit with this one. And when I think about it, this transfer should be the moment when we point to that started Barcelonas downfall. This is the one where Barcelona thought they could get away with anything and gave them false invincibility.
Really? Cesc's won more trophies at Barca than he did in his entire career anywhere else.. by some distance.. and even though Barca had financial troubles and haven't won the UCl since 2015.. they've continued to win League and Cup titles even up to last season, while Arsenal havent won a league title in 20 years. Only been in top four 3 times in the last decade. Thats much more of a decline, if you ask me
Putting the shirt on was a bit much. The entitlement and disrespect honestly tarnished Cesc’s reputation/career
I mean you can agree but Cesc was also kept in a average Arsenal team that won nothing despite wanting to leave he could have been a Champions league winner if Arsenal had let him leave earlier.
As a Barca fan I have to say that I skipped Sandro Rosell quote, damn I became angry just seeing one frame of that guy, he and his best friend Bartomeu destroyed Laporta and Guardiola legacy. That aside, if i we're Arsenal in that time just... the bench, and then sell him for an exaggerated price, there's no need to make a drama about it, just cut off the issue and everything is over. "El que dude de jugar ya no sirve", that's is the mentallity every great team should have.
Poetic justice how Fabregas didn't win the Champions League with Barcelona, serves him right
Won more than he ever would've at Arsenal
Poetic justice what’s happening now to Barca *
@@hamzaorakzai3490 Poetic justice for what's happening to barca now.

As a barca fan, that quote from Dani Alves was especially cringe and disgraceful, you don't disrespect clubs like that.

ngl as an arsenal fan i'm so delighted a large majority of our fanbase want him nowhere near our club again especially as a coach people clown us for not taking him back but honestly i'm happy about it wenger didn't want to see his annoying face again

i’ve been watching for 2 years and the quality of the videos just keeps going up!!! Literally my favourite yt channel ur the goat adrian
Listening to all this I totally forgot how drawn out it all was, mainly because I even more totally forgot that he was in Barcelona for a total of three seasons. So many seasons of courtship, and he is there for 3. Only 3. What a failure on the team's side.
As an Arsenal fan, this whole saga still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth and I despise Barca to this day for how utterly disrespectful they were throughout. Cesc could have chosen to stop all the noise but instead, he chose to remain silent and then he had the audacity to want to come back when he realised the grass actually wasn't greener on the other side.
It actually was greener though. The only thing he didn't win with us was the UCL. If he stayed one more season, he would've had that. You can hardly even make the UCL knockouts or even qualify for the UCL.
Bro what? Cesc won a ton with with Barca. He played with the greatest team OAT. The grass 1000x more green lmao. While arsenal went on to not win a thing til this day.
@@YKT_OFFICIAL it’s almost like trophies don’t mean everything, he wanted to go back to England after only three seasons for one reason or another whether that’s because he missed London or he realised he wanted to the THE star again and winning trophies as just another one of the guys wasn’t enough for him. Plus why are you acting like Arsenal didn’t qualify for the Champions league every season from 1998-2016? The last few years are an anomaly because of years of mismanagement.
Despite this Arsenal are still in the top 10 for wins in the competition and made it past the first group stage in every season after 1999-2000, the club lacked complete success in the competition because Wenger would rather play the right way rather than adopt a more pragmatic style that has more consistent success in Europe hence why the only time Arsenal made the final was the only time Wenger used a more pragmatic style out of necessity because of injuries which lead to 10 consecutive clean sheets in the competition which is still a record to this date.
Keep on talking rubbish whilst you can because your petty mockery won’t be relevant when Arsenal are champions of Europe and Barca run out of levers and go into administration.
@@jafaral-badri8005 Why did he want to go back to Arsenal then if the grass was so green? Why does is he currently training to be a coach at Arsenal? Why despite everything that happened back then does he beg to have a relationship with Arsenal whilst his relationship with Barca is nonexistent? Please explain
@stealthiscool Champions of Europe....... You're funny. Even we stand a better chance of winning another one than you winning a first. Sure you qualified in the past but remind me how many finals you reached and who you lost to. And last time you in the UCL you were embarrassed by Bayern.(We were also embarrassed by them, I know.)
I was there Gandalf. I was there 3000 years ago.
This saga had absolutely drained me back in the day. 😅😓
I just wanna say I love these type of vids. Unique content and delivery
The Arsene Wenger was full of weird transfer sagas. The Arshavin to Arsenal transfer was probably as weird for me even as a fan of the club
Great video as always Adrian
What barca players and their executives did is totally unacceptable. Anyone with class would avoid doing this.there is another club named bayern who are equally masters of the same thing
Fabregas and RVP will never ever be in line with the "once a gunner, always a gunner" code that most players who leave us follow. The pure disrespect from Barcelona and their execs during this saga makes me sad even to this day. Depressing stuff, but we as a club are moving in a direction now where we don't have to sell our best players to suit our financial needs because they are being openly "tapped up" by other teams. It should mean something to play for Arsenal and if it doesn't then you can leave, just don't be disrespectful while doing it. Great video as always
And Fabregas should NEVER return to Arsenal in any capacity
One thing I can say about RVP is that at least he owns it. To me he seems like he understood the magnitude of his decision to go to United and from then on there would be no coming back, and he's since stayed clear of the club. Fabregas was so shameless to me, and constantly tries to linger around the club like a bad smell despite the way he left us.
@@jheath102 Because he is not a club Legend at Chelsea and Arsenal. And Barcelona betrayed him. He thinks he is a bigger legend than Arteta so Arsenal should respect him more but Arteta actually worked hard for Arsenal despite having loyalty of Pep/City and Everton.
He can live an easy life with City as assistant coach or low expectation job at Everton but he chose the hard job at Arsenal.
Fabregas was scary. Those pases man. Great Video once again ❤
This was the saga that made me hate Barcelona as an institution. I am not even a Real or Arsenal fan.
It lacked class, entitlement and arrogance. Especially the players and how publicly they disrespected Arsenal.
They made him take a pay cut and pay a portion of his transfer fee.
Karma is great. Look at them now, swimming in financial problems, lost Messi, twerking for change like hosting weddings on their pitch, arrests and indictments, UCL group eliminations, getting knocked out of europe all together in europa play offs and are the butt of jokes when it comes to transfers.
There is no way Barça didn’t “tap up.” That behavior is in their DNA.
I’m not gonna lie I really really have a hatred for Barca even more so now with being a billion pound in debt selling their stadium name rights, selling tv rights just for short term gain and also the way they treated cesc after all the fiasco of how much they wanted him and then within three years getting rid of him.
The contempt he's shown Arsene when he left will never be forgotten, the fact that he now talks as if it wasn't such a big deal and Arsenal were the one that hurt him by refusing him back, is insane. Not only that but he went and signed for Chelsea, that's a proper snake right there.
Oh no poor barca, how will the survive cause mrjon hates them
@@tonyx8862 cringe af ngl fam, you also probably call football soccer so your opinion is invalid, yank
@@tonyx8862 cringe
@@phteven9610Barca didnt get rid of him, he said his mistake was he didnt waited for a year to replace xavi. So Barca hired Rakitic after he left.
The Barcelona executives and players felt entitled and heaped insults on The Arsenal throughout that saga. That all I remember, and it was distasteful.
11:30 that was disrespectful especially if it coming from someone as Puyol
Love the vids
How did that move work out for us? Exactly as we deserved.
Definitely one of the most messy transfer saga ever. Fabregas was a baller at Arsenal and captain despite Arsenal went through mediocrity and disillusionment. I enjoyed watching Fabregas at Arsenal and he's one of those players I would sign up when playing Fifa when I was a teenager when doing a Barcelona career mode. In 2011 Fabregas got his dream move to Barcelona however joined at the wrong time and failed to be a starter. 3 years later he tried to return to Arsenal but Wenger refused since Arsenal still had Özil and Cazorla then and had to join Chelsea and won two Premier League titles.
Moral of the story, it's not always greener on the other side for players when wanting to join a dream club. Ask Fabregas, Sancho and Pepe.
Which Pepe the arsenal one or the Porto one????
Sancho ?? His move to dortmund was a great move. But since when man utd are his dream club ?? He came back just to rub salt to man city but didn’t work out. The better example you should’ve put is EDEN HAZARD to madrid / COUTINHO to barca.
@@Sipho_Thenjwayo Nicholas Pepe.
@@thecitizens4573 Oh yeah, good point.
@@lwandomadikizela2213 btw are u a south African
I was too young of a barca fans to notice all this back then. So we beat them in 2006, did all this infuriating saga to them, then ended up selling him to their rival. If that wasn't the biggest asshole move, I don't what is🤣
A true Chelsea legend, that assist against Burnley lives rent free in my memory
He was one of the first players I got to see wearing a Barca shirt when I was a kid and it’s kinda sad to learn how many of the players pressured this signing and put Fabregas in an awkward position.
The sad thing is Barcelona in the end didn't manage to get the best out of him and they fell out of love with him very quickly and Cesc was shipped out of within a few years.
As an Arsenal fan, this was difficult.
Adrian, if possible, can we get a part 2 of to this.
Harry Maguire has Barca DNA.
As a Barca Supporter, this pains me. I am relatively New Barca Fan, something like 2014-15. I wasn't aware of this saga until now. All the bad qualities of the club I usually assigned to the old management of Rosell and Co. But this is Absolutely trashy behavior and shows a complete lack of decency, that too from a group of players who are club legends and management (laporta) that I approve of. I am sorry to all the arsenal fans. I wonder will all the top clubs even remain for us to be fans of, if we see their behavior.
Barcelona has always been a corrupt club lol. You should check barcelona vs Chelsea champions league finals.
This is the reason why I think whatever Bacrelona is getting now is karma for what they did to Arsenal and Cesc.
To go through all these, and throw Cesc away like "garbage" just 3 season is pure dumbness
Xavi and his merry band of dwarves always saw rules as recommendations in the end.
No class from Barcelona.
Hey Rabona, can you do a video on the situation regarding Harry Maguire and his potential exit from United? Huge fan of your player focused videos.
As a Madrid fan I can’t stand out clubs entitlement sometimes. That said our club is not close as bad as Barca and specifically Laporta who does this EVERY month.
Atleast Real accepts mistakes and changes strategy when we are wrong.
Who tf is talking? Don’t think U’re better, U’re worse.
Hazard, figo, mbappe and more U’re the meaning of scandalous
Dope, can you make a video on why Cesc didnt work out at Barcelona and left?
I remember this, it was draining and I am a United fan
My loathing for Barcelona has been at an all-time high after this moment.
Who cares?? U are a sensitive kid I see..I bet when a murderer of someone you love gives you a candy, you will forgive him in an instant 😂😂
Classy move from Barça as usual
Fabregas made a choice,so sad Arsenal doesn’t see him as a Legend but he is up there with Henry and in Chelsea he was unplayable,even in Barca he was dame good …He’s the reason I love football
Barca had that thing with Unicef and playing football the "right way" but honestly they've been scummy trash for a very long time now - fouling and diving in equal measure. The fact that they wasted Cesc when he got there is a crime, but he's not the first or last talent to go that way
Mbappe with Real madrid are absolutely beating this saga in terms of annoyance, drainage and waiting.. :D
adrian who do you prefer? madrid or barcelona? milan or inter? dortmund or bayern? psg or lyon? city or arsenal?
And this is why I'll never give a dang about Catalan independence.
Arsenal and barca at the same video? Im in.
And now Fabregas isn't respected at Arsenal, is a nobody even in that one generation of Barcelona's and isn't that big of a deal for Chelsea either. It was a childish move done the wrong way and leading to nothing good. Could've been the Tony Adams of midfielders in Arsenal. Now he has no true legacy fitting of his talent anywhere!
As an 18 yo Spaniard at the time, I remember how tiresome this whole saga was... and you didn't even mention how before signing for Barcelona, he was involved in another transfer saga (although not as dramatic) with Real Madrid.
4:00 I did not expect to see Benni!
I can't remember this whole ordeal with Cesc at all.
Barcelona… what a classy club
I remember how much Manchester United wanted him aswell but in the end he chose Barcelona over us and then every year till he left we were linked with a move for Fabregas.
My 2 all time favorite players are Cesc Fábregas and Bastian Schweinsteiger, thanks for the video and I know eventually you will make one for the fusballgod
I wholeheartedly despise Xavi to the core. FCB had no reason nor need of someone like Fabregas, and Xavi himself wasn't retiring anytime soon but he said all the ridiculous accusations against Arsenal. What Fabregas did during that time left no room to be an Arsenal legend, not that that's something really matters to him. He just wants trophies to vindicate himself. He did won some titles at FCB, although he never established himself among the very core to that team, and Xavi never wanted to relinquish his place to Cesc. Now that Fabregas retires and I really wonder which team football fans can associate him with, and whether he would be regarded as one of the very best midfielders in that generation.
However, in retrospect, Arsenal was not going well both on the pitch and in the transfer market, which gave Fabregas and other standout players realistic hope that they would win major trophies. Arsenal was in their stadium debt and Wenger was always replacing star players with cheap inferior ones like Song, Eboue, Danilson, and Chamakh. If I were Fabregas or RVP I'd also be impatient as players careers are short.
Yeah covert your frustrations of winning nothing onto Xavi..
Shift your years of trophyless at Arsenal onto Xavi becuz he won trophies 😂😂
Bruh better focus ur hate somewhere it should be, at Wenger and his Banter football ...It's not like Xavi even knows your name 😂😂
@@eL--RaL I don't care how many titles FCB won because they've shamed themselves. Their winning history is forever tarnished with referee bribing scandals and financial failures. You're addicted to chase success but your future is owned by financial institutions. And guess what Xavi doesn't care about you too no matter how hard you defend him by attacking ppl on a personal level. They just want you to continue lowering your moral standards and keep licking their trophies.
Salt to a old wound. 😢😢
In the end I don't think Cese enjoyed his years in Barcelona.
It’s hypocritical of any top tier team to criticise another about tapping up players. It’s not as if they haven’t done it to other teams of lesser stature.
Those words by Alves have to hurt, "Arsenal are tourist class" yikes
Rabona tv neon sign in the back kinda looks like a saudi club crest 😅
As a bayern fan, this harry kane transfer was pure torture
Barcelona has and will always be club without class
Barca is the most Family like club in football kid 😂
The Mbappe saga is still the most frustrating one. 5 years of constant flirting and back and forths
Seeing him booo by barca fans at nuecamp os beautiful😊😊😊
Mbappe himself is saying PSG is tourist class 😂😂😂😂 why would you need Tchouameni for that
Barcelona always act like they are entitled to everything.
Including bankruptcy
Now one on Figo.
He came to Barcelona for nothing.
He could’ve stayed at Arsenal and be a Legend.
He was nothing but a glorified sub at Barcelona and it costed him the rest of his career.
You drill down on Barcelona and you can easily start to dislike them. I really wish Sociedad could win the league now!
I remember elements of this, but didn't realize the level of "tapping up' or "tampering" as it would be called in North America. There really should be have been huge fines.
It's interesting that his Barca career ended up being short, and while he was very good there, did not become the player he was expected to become (though he was a part of the 2011 CL win). His career rather peaked at Arsenal in fact. Then going to career-killing Chelsea.
That World Cup celebration than they forcedly put on Barca shirt was the point I hated Barca, they disrespected Arsenal
I would say that karma had its way, Cesc and Guardiola ended up on terrible terms, with Pep refusing to shake his hand in a match. Pep ended up resigning, one of the reasons other than hating Rosell is that he had "a mole" in his team, suspected to be Fabregas. So Barca ends up losing their best manager and Cesc never won a UCL. Also terrible for Arsenal as it started a trend of the club being seen a "selling" club and lead an exodus towards other clubs. A lesson in mismanagement.
Fabregas was never a mole😂
You have to love what psg is doing to barca
Yeah I like that they lower our medical costs indeed
I mean the Mbappe sage comes close since Real Madrid have been flirting with him for 6 years it maybe not be the craziest but the longest transfer saga ever that is for sure.
Tebas is a gooner for sure. Nothing else explains his screwing Barcelona like this. Love it.
i am still very bitter over this
In Islington he's known as FabreRAT.
More reason I dont regard Fabregas as an Arsenal legend
they did this with coutinho
Irony is that their motto is mes que un club means more than a club🙄😒😏
and nothing about T henry??? he left just to win too???
Barcelona as Barcelona does, left him on the bench for most of his spell
Better title
Good old days lol
Yo can we pause for a moment and talk about how MLS team's are actually in a Dominant position to win the whole thing? League's Cup is basically a Concacaf UCL 2.0 ... Kinda giving us a good idea where both Leagues are 😂
I still can't forgive Barcelona for the way they behaved and can never wish them well. I used to adore Puyol for his Euros and World Cup Display , I started hating the way he behaved in this whole saga
