Cesc: My future's with Gunners.

Cesc Fabregas has no intention of following Cristiano Ronaldo to Spain as he wants to taste Champions League glory with Arsenal.

The 22-year-old is no stranger to speculation over his own future, having broken into the Arsenal first team while still a teenager.

However, the former Barcelona youth player firmly believes he can achieve all of his club ambitions at the Emirates Stadium, where he is the heartbeat of Arsene Wenger's young side.

"Of course I see my future at Arsenal. I have a very long contract with the club," Fabregas said in an interview with Arsenal TV Online, which was conducted before Thursday's official announcement on Ronaldo's impending £80million move from Manchester United to Real Madrid.

"I would have never signed that if I did not think I was capable of making it (to the end of the contract).

"The boss knows that I really want to stay here.

"What you cannot stop is what people say about you. The press can write or say whatever they want. Here, I do not get involved at all.

"Since I am 18, they have been saying that - but I am still here."

Fabregas, committed to Arsenal until at least 2014, added: "I just say what I feel - and what I feel is that I hope I can be at Arsenal for many years and lift trophies which they have never lifted before, like the Champions League, to lift the Premier League, FA Cups.

"I am really looking forward to it because I am sure the future is bright here."
Fabregas spent the best part of four months on the sidelines in the middle of last season following a knee problem.

The Spain midfielder, though, is not set for an extended rest this summer as he heads with the European champions to the Confederations Cup in South Africa.

"It is a pleasure to be involved," he said. "With Spain we are going through a moment which is historic, and have not lost a match in something like 30, which is unbelievable.

"Now, when you see Spain play, even if they are losing you are not worried because you know they will come back."
