Queens Park Rangers midfielder Adel Taarabt has suggested that he would be up for a move to Arsenal, but only if Cesc Fabregas leaves for Barcelona.
The ex-Tottenham man had a very disappointing time at White Hart Lane, but has since impressed football fans up and down the country, after acquiring a permanent move to QPR.
The 22-year old had a fantastic season last year in the Championship and contributed greatly, helping the west London side win the league, allowing them to return to the Premiership for the first time in 15 years.
In an interview with L’Equipe, The Moroccan also revealed that Chelsea are chasing him too.
“QPR will demand £10million pounds for me, and for now, the clubs do not move too much.
“I had contact with Arsenal and Chelsea, but it is a little muddled. Arsenal have not yet sold Fabregas, and as for Chelsea, they do not yet have a coach, so we will see.
“I would like to stay in London – it is the best city in the world, and with Queens Park Rangers? Why not?”
Towards the end of the season, I saw multiple QPR matches and I have to say that Adel Taarabt was absolutely fantastic in every game I watched.
However, it’s an obviously huge step-up to the Premiership and looking back, the time he spent at Tottenham doesn’t exactly fill me with confidence.
Clearly he has improved dramatically since his Spurs days, but would he be good enough for a club with such ambition like Arsenal?
