Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, has claimed that Cesc Fabregas chose the club over a return to Arsenal, so he could win trophies.
The Spanish midfielder left Barcelona last summer, but opted to join the Gunners’ rivals at Stamford Bridge.
On Sunday, he will return to the Emirates for the first time since he left, with Chelsea closing on the Premier League title.
“I know why he chose Chelsea,” Mourinho said, adding “I don’t know why he didn’t choose Arsenal. I only know what we promised him and what he promised us.
“I can’t talk about why he left Arsenal, why he didn’t go back. I don’t know if it was his decision or the manager’s decision. We promised him a team built in the style to suit his play.
“Normally good projects go in hand with titles and he was looking for that”.
