Javier Mascherano is confident Barcelona team-mate Cesc Fabregas will stay at the club despite attracting interest from Manchester United.
Speaking last week, United boss David Moyes conceded he was in the dark as to whether the Premier League champions will up their offer or train their sights elsewhere. The Scot said: "I couldn't tell you if there will be another bid. Obviously we will take stock of it and consider what we are going to do next. "I never at any time said I knew we would get him. I just said we had made offers. "But what we have here is a really good squad of players already. You mustn't forget about the quality that is already here at Manchester United. "Undoubtedly we are hoping to add to it. I am quite confident we will do, certainly before the window shuts." Former United defender David May told Sky Sports News Radio on Monday that a move to Old Trafford would be "perfect" for Fabregas. May said: "When good players are there it's right that United should go for them. I wouldn't say that they're desperate; Barcelona are holding on to him, and rightly so because he is a good player. "I think it's down to Cesc at the end of the day. If he feels he's not going to get in front of Xavi and (Andrés) Iniesta then the move to United would be perfect for him." You can hear May's full interview, in which he also talks about United's pre-season campaign, here.
