Joseba Diaz, Cesc's agent, has quite publicly condemned Marca's story from yesterday as false and denied there was any meeting with Arsene Wenger. He has said:
I swear on my family that nobody from my office or any representative of Cesc was in Madrid with Arsene. That is totally false information. I don't know why Arsene was in Madrid. He's the trainer of Arsenal so you should ask him. I imagine it's a time when English clubs want to make signings so perhaps he had a meeting with some other representatives.
I always say there will be interest from clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona or Milan because what he is doing is phenomenal. But what's clear is that he has a contract for another 7 years at Arsenal, he likes it there and he has never expressed any desire to leave. There will be speculation but he has never said he wanted to leave.
