Cesc Fabregas: 'Barcelona vs. Arsenal will be very special'

Cesc Fabregas hopes that Barcelona draw Arsenal in the Champions League last 16 and admits that it will be "a very special tie".

Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas has said that he wants to play against Arsenal in the Champions League last 16.

The 25-year-old left the London club to join Barca in the summer of 2011 after spending eight years with them.

"I think at this stage of the competition all teams are difficult, but I would be thrilled, for love and affinity, if I could face Arsenal back in London and face all the people that I have played with for so many years," he said.

"It would be a very special tie for me."

Fabregas has started 13 La Liga games so far this season and three matches in the Champions League.
