see his former team-mate attracting
Manchester United but believes he
will fight for his place at Camp Nou
Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey expects
Cesc Fabregas to remain at Barcelona
despite Manchester United 's interest in
the former Gunners playmaker.
The defending Premier League champions
are set to make an improved €40.6
million offer for Fabregas having already
had two bids - the latest worth €35m plus
add-ons - rejected.
Ramsey admits he was not surprised to
see the Spaniard linked with other clubs
but believes he will choose to fight for his
place at Camp Nou.
"I've seen the stories but I don't know
what's going on there," Ramsey told the
Daily Mail. "He's a quality player and he
will be linked to a few different clubs.
"I don't know exactly what will happen
but he's a great player and he's still at
Barcelona and he said earlier in the year
that he wants to stay, fight for his place
and become a regular there."
Having cemented his place in the Arsenal
team during the second half of the
2012-13 campaign, Ramsey is optimistic
about the season ahead and hoping to
contribute more goals from central
midfield.
"I think I was very happy with my form at
the end of the season," he said.
"I was playing in central midfield, that's
my favourite position and I still think
there's more to come from me and I was
pleased with the way I played and my
contribution to the team.
"I think I proved a lot of people wrong,
showed exactly what I can do and there's
a lot more to come from me. Scoring
goals is one thing I need to improve on
and hopefully I can do that this season.
"Our target is to put ourselves right in
contention early on and not let that gap
get as big as it has been in the last few
years. In the last 10 or 11 games, we
were undefeated and put in a load of
great performances and that form is what
you need to compete at the top."
