Cesc Fàbregas claims his Barcelona-supporting family would understand if he joined their hated rivals Real Madrid.
The Arsenal skipper came through the youth ranks at Barcelona before joining Arsenal as a 16-year-old in 2003.
But Fàbregas insists that his family, who are all keen supporters of La Blaugrana, would not prevent him moving to the Bernabéu.
He told The Sun: "Of course my family would understand if I signed for Real Madrid because they love me, they want me to be happy and what is best for me.
"They'd support me - whichever club I joined. My family will always be there for me - whatever decision I make.
"They're the ones who are always by my side."
Yet the 22-year-old midfielder insists he would not force his way out by publicly declaring his desire to leave.
Fàbregas continued: "I will never do that. It's not the way I am.
"If I have to say I want to leave I will do it face to face. If one day I'm not happy, I am the first who will tell the manager."
