Fabregas - still wanted by Guardiola.
BARCA WON'T UP BID FOR CESC

Barcelona president Sandro Rosell insists the club will not be making an improved offer for Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas in the summer.
Spanish giants Barca tried to bring Fabregas back to Camp Nou last year, but were unable to persuade Arsenal to sell the midfielder.
Reports suggest Barca will again try to tempt the Gunners into parting with Fabregas, who had intimated that he would be keen to rejoin his first club.
However, Rosell is adamant that, even though coach Pep Guardiola wants Fabregas in his squad, Barca will not be breaking the bank to sign the World Cup winner.
"Barca is not disposed to pay £43.9million for Cesc Fabregas next summer," said Rosell in an interview with Catalan newspaper Sport.
"That is decided and, although Guardiola demands this player, we will not pay this amount.
"It is impossible due to a simple reason. In football, prices are reduced each year and, if we offered Arsenal £35.1million for Cesc last summer, €50m is now impossible.
"If the coach demands Cesc we will negotiate with the Gunners, but at a correct limit and without madness and, if the operation is not possible, we will wait for other opportunities.
"Our relationship with Arsenal is not good. The Toral issue has not pleased us.
"The future of Cesc is in his hands and we could only negotiate with Arsenal if Guardiola insists. Only with any sale is it possible to increase the money for the negotiations."

Kean - backed by Blackburn's owners.
BLACKBURN KEEP FAITH WITH KEAN

Blackburn owners Venky's insist manager Steve Kean retains their support following reports he was set to be sacked.
Kean's position at Ewood Park had come under scrutiny on the back of one win in eight Premier League games which has left Blackburn just one point outside the relegation zone.
A betting plunge saw Kean's odds to be the next top-flight boss to be sacked plummet as Rovers fight for their survival.
However, co-owner Venkatesh Rao has rejected suggestions Kean is on borrowed time and stressed the manager has their full backing.
"I think it's absolutely not correct," Rao told Sky Sports News regarding the latest rumours about Kean's future.
"The situation is in control. We are very much with the managers. The rumours have come, but we have to work positively."
Rao is also confident that Blackburn boast a positive future following the takeover by Venky's earlier in the season.
He added: "Blackburn Rovers is very, very positive. I can tell from day one we are there for the club.
"We are looking for the season to finish and looking at many more things, such as a training ground and training academy in India.
"We are thinking of a long-term prospect. As a team we've also got a good bunch of players and the manager is very nice and very positive.
"Time will cure the whole thing and we have to keep playing good."
