Two players who could make an Arsenal return in January

Cesc Fabregas

He may not have endeared himself to Arsenal fans when he left for Barcelona in 2011, but Cesc Fabregas could make a return to the Emirates in January.

This is because, despite more recent appearances in the first team, the Spanish international has largely been behind Nemanja Matic and N’Golo Kante in the Chelsea ranks, and played just 55 minutes of Premier League football in the first three months of the season.

Consequently, he has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, and Arsenal is one club that has cropped up in that speculation.

Fabregas has proven in recent times to be a top-quality midfielder in the Premier League – he was a big factor in Chelsea’s title-winning success back in 2015 – and would certainly add to the Gunners’ midfield options for the rest of the campaign.
