Real Madrid: We will not swap Benzema for Arsenal captain Cesc

Real Madrid insist they're not planning a move for Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas.

Cesc has been linked with a transfer to Real, which would see Karim Benzema move in the opposite direction.

"At no time have we offered anything to Arsenal," a Real board source told L'Equipe.

"I can therefore confirm that Fabregas will not come to Real, and Benzema will not be leaving."
