CESC APPEAL ... Pique and Puyol nab picture of Fabregas at Arsenal's training ground

BARCELONA stars Gerard Pique and Carles Puyol have finally nicked Cesc Fabregas back from Arsenal.

The pair — Fabregas' close pals — risked the wrath of Arsene Wenger by fooling around with a Fabregas picture at the Gunners' training ground.

Pique and Puyol infamously forced Fabregas to wear a Barca shirt in the World Cup celebrations last summer.

And they may well have overstepped the mark again.

The Gunners have been kind enough to let Barca use their training facilities at London Colney this week.

Barca were forced to fly to London two days early to beat the Icelandic ash cloud.

And though clearly meant as a bit of fun, Pique and Puyol's actions in the Arsenal dressing room are sure to raise eyebrows.

Pique posted the picture on his Twitter account, with the message: "Puyol and I stealing a picture of Cesc in the Arsenal dressing room."

It will do nothing to ease the tension that exists between the two clubs over Barcelona's long-standing pursuit of Fabregas.

The end of another disappointing season for the Gunners has sparked more intense speculation about Fabregas' future.

A summer move to Barcelona has once again been mooted.

But Gunners boss Wenger is desperate to keep Cesc and he is certain to be frothing at the mouth at these antics.
