United wasting their time on Fabregas, says Pique

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique has told Manchester United they are wasting their time trying to sign Cesc Fabregas, this summer.

The Red Devils have made a second bid of £30m plus add-ons for the former Arsenal midfielder after having an initial offer rejected.

However, Pique, who played at Old Trafford from 2004 to 2006, is confident Fabregas will not join the Premier League champions.

"United are wasting their time," he told The Sun.

"It took a long time for Cesc to get his dream move back home and he won't give it up.

"This is home. It is where his family is, and he is playing with his closest friends.He has told us he is happy and that he intends to stay with Barcelona."
