Cesc Fabregas' agent has confirmed the Arsenal teenager would prefer to stay in London rather than move to Real Madrid.

Joseba Diaz, who appeared to court a move to Spain for his 19-year-old client recently, now insists the former Barcelona trainee could spend "a lot of seasons in London".

He told BBC Radio: "We have one very good offer from Madrid but Cesc and Arsenal prefer he plays in London.

"Cesc is very grateful to Mr (Arsene) Wenger, Mr (David) Dein and the supporters of Arsenal and he just prefers playing at Arsenal next season and I think a lot of seasons in London."
