Bringing Cesc-y back: Manchester United will have one more go with a £34million bid

Manchester United will make a third and final bid of £34million for Barcelona’s Cesc Fabregas, writes David McDonnell in Tokyo.

United will go back in with a club record offer after the Spanish ­champions rejected the first two bids of £26m and £30m.

But Barcelona president Sandro Rosell has written to United telling them to keep their hands off the midfielder as he is a “key part of our project.”

If the Catalans ­maintain their stance, United could turn to ­Newcastle’s £18m Yohan Cabaye or Real Madrid’s Luka Modric.

Moyes said: “A point does come but when you are ­interested in good players you want to give it every opportunity to materialise.

“And I’ll do that. I’ll hope things can continue to try to move forward.”
