CHELSEA midfielder Cesc Fabregas was involved in yet another bust-up, this time with the Swedish superstar Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The Spanish international recently had a spat with a Chelsea teammate during training and was now seen having a heated exchange with the PSG striker following his side’s 2-1 defeat. Apparently the Chelsea players unhappy with Ibrahimovic’s taunts on the pitch and that resulted in an altercation between the two players. According to reports from the foreign media, Fabregas asked for an explanation from Zlatan and the Swedish striker ignored the Chelsea midfielder.
