6 players who re-signed for ex-clubs and succeeded

#1 Cesc Fabregas

Formerly of Barcelona, currently in West London

The 30-year-old Spaniard is a decorated footballer who enjoyed his initial days playing at Barcelona, before he left for Arsenal at the tender age of 16, to continue his development in London under Arsene Wenger.

After eight years with the Gunners, with the last few as captain and an FA Cup to show for his time in London, Fabregas made his 'dream move' back to the Catalan giants, Barcelona.

With Guardiola at the helm, Barcelona was the best team in the world at the time, and with the arrival of Fabregas to bolster their creative options in the middle of the park, Barcelona looked formidable.

In his three years at the Nou Camp, Fabregas enjoyed a successful spell, playing a key role, guiding his childhood team to every trophy but the UEFA Champions League.

Back in London, but plying his trade for Chelsea, the Spaniard has gone on to win the English Premier League twice with the Blues in the last three seasons, as he chases the elusive Champions League dream.
