Who is Cesc Fabregas?
Cess Fabregas is professional soccer player. The talented Chelsea and Spain national team player, Cesc Fàbregas has turned from a modest Catalonian young man into one of the best midfielders in the world quickly.
Cess Fabregas Childhood and youth
Francesc Fàbregas Soler was born on May 4, 1987, in Arenys de Mar situated on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea (Catalonia, Spain). His father Francesc was a property company owner, and the mother Núria ran her own pastry company. Cesc went to his first match with his grandfather at the age of 9 months.

Cesc Fabregas Soccer Career
When the boy was ten, the scouts of Barcelona noticed the young player of Mataró and invited him to their academy. Fàbregas became the defensive midfielder, just like his icon player Josep Guardiola. The future soccer stars Lionel Messi and Gerard Piqué were on the same team with Cesc.
Fàbregas’s prospects in Barcelona were cloudy: the player could not understand whether he would be the first eleven member, so it was easy for Arsène Wenger to persuade the sportsman to transfer to Arsenal. Wegner promised Cesc would soon play for the main team. Of course, he could not fulfill the promise at once: the player was not ready to play on the necessary level. Cesc debuted on October 23, 2003, at the match between Arsenal and Rotherham United. At that time, Fàbregas was the youngest debutant in the history of the club.
