Barcelona fans are evidently not happy with the signing of Alex Song from Arsenal last summer and would prefer a Chelsea midfielder instead.

The Arsenal midfielder, 21, will have a pin removed at the end of the season and is set to miss England's friendlies with Ireland at Wembley on May 29 and Brazil in Rio on June 2.

Rumours have circulated over the past week that former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas could make a return to the Emirates this summer.
