    The midfielder scored twice in his side's 8-0 win over Santos on Friday and his coach has pleaded with him to remain at Camp Nou

    Barcelona coach Gerardo Martino says Cesc Fabregas must decide his own future, amid speculation he could join Manchester United.

    The 26-year-old has attracted intense and public transfer interest from the Red Devils, who are believed to have fielded a final €40 million offer for the midfielder.

    Having watched Fabregas score twice from the bench in Barca's 8-0 drubbing of Santos on Friday, Martino admitted he wants the ex-Arsenal captain to stay at Camp Nou but says the Spain international will have the final say.

    "I'm not thinking about Barca without Cesc," he told reporters. "I've talked to him, I've explained my ideas. He's one of the best in the squad, but there's also a part that he has to decide.

    "If it depends on me, he'll stay, and I believe he will, so I haven't thought about who I'd sign to replace him yet."

    Martino had announced to Camp Nou from the pitch before the match that he was hoping to help the side to numerous successes this season having taken over from Tito Vilanova in July.

    "I just wanted to say that it is with enormous happiness that I am here with the team," the Argentine added. "I want to pass on my pride of being a part of this club and I hope this year will see championship-level achievements for the club."

    Fabregas avoided talk of speculation when writing on his Twitter after the match, but shared his delight at the dominating victory over Neymar's former club.

    He wrote: "I'm pleased with this good start and to win the [pre-season] Gamper trophy is always special for us!"

    i guess fabregas or his agent must have given united the green light for his transfer. United are not dumb to make two bids for someone who dose not want to leave

    DAVID MOYES has been told he can spend as much as he likes.

     

    The new Manchester United boss has targeted both Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo — even though they would cost over £75million EACH.

     

    Moyes declared: “Isn’t it great that the club says, ‘There’s no budget here, you go get who you want to get, just go and do it’.

     

    "We are looking at the best players. I do think it’s important that we show people we are carrying on the traditions and trying to take the club forward.”

     

    United’s current record fee is the £30.75m they paid Tottenham for Dimitar Berbatov in 2007.

     

    Spurs wing wizard Bale, 23, and Real Madrid superstar Ronaldo, 28, would cost way over double that, though.

     

    Asked about Bale and Ronaldo, Moyes said: “I will not name anybody but certainly we are always looking at the best players.

     

    “I think we are trying to strengthen in a couple of areas. We are short in midfield. We are also a club which tends to invest in the youth side, so you can expect us to go for players in that age group.

     

    “We are working hard to make sure the first signing is the right one.

     

    “I have been left a really good team and I want to add to it sensibly.”

     

    United remain keen on Leighton Baines, one of Moyes’ stars at former club Everton.

     

    But the Red Devils will not increase their £12m offer, meaning the England left-back will have to put in a transfer request if he wants a move.

    “There have been no offers yet, but Liverpool know exactly what is going on and what I want,” Suarez told Uruguayan radio station Sport 890.

    “My agent is in charge, he knows what I want, I am resting and relaxed. I am due back in about ten days, on the 21st of July, [but] a phone call could change everything.

    “It is good to know that I am still valued by teams like Arsenal. Friends call me up to ask if I am moving to Chelsea, to which I laugh.”

    "20|13 Champions of England for a Record 20th Time. We Took back the title from City and what a season it was, a season of comebacks.

     

    We also got a shock at the end of it all when Sir Alex confirmed he was retiring as the manager after 27 Glorious years.

     

    Here is a look back at a season full of ups and downs."

    Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has further increased speculation linking Tottenham star Gareth Bale with a move to the Spanish giants, insisting he "was born to play" for the club.

    The 23-year-old scored 21 Premier League goals during a stellar personal season that saw Spurs narrowly miss out on Champions League qualification, and he is expected to sign a new contract worth £130,000 at White Hart Lane this summer.

    However, Bale's agent, Jonathan Barnett, admitted on Wednesday that the attacker would consider any offer from the nine times European champions.

    "Gareth Bale was born to play in Real Madrid," Perez told Cadena Cope.

    Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata, meanwhile, has hailed Bale as "one of the best players in the world" and backed him to be a success if he joins the club.

    "He would be a good signing for the club," he told Marca. Bale is one of the best players in the world and at Real Madrid we always have the best. I am convinced that if the club want him he would be a great signing."

    Last week, Real Madrid director of football Zinedine Zidane ranked the Wales international alongside La Liga legends Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

    "I have been watching Tottenham for the very reason that Bale has been playing," he said.

    "Aside from Ronaldo and Messi, who are the top players, I must admit that he is the footballer who impressed me most."
