AC Milan have made a stunning £45 million bid for Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas.
The Daily Star says AC Milan have reportedly offered £30m plus player deal in a bid to snatch Cesc Fabregas from under Barcelona's noses.
A delegation from Barcelona, led by vice-president Josep Maria Bartomeu, are determined to push through a £31m deal to bring midfielder Fabregas back to the Nou Camp, although Arsenal remain steadfast in their £40m valuation.
Barcelona's unwillingness to match Arsenal's asking price and Arsene Wenger's growing frustration has led to the Gunners to seek out other options.
