Quote :: ARSENAL'S midfield maestro Cesc Fabregas will wear the No 10 jersey for Spain during EURO 2008 in Austria and Switzerland next month.

The No 10 is traditionally given to the best or most creative players in a team and Fabregas hopes to pull all the strings for Spain in their hunt for glory.

Most players have kept their numbers but Fabregas and striker David Villa will be wearing different digits below their names.

Fabregas 'will no longer wear the No 18 which he wore during World Cup 2006.

He wore the No 8 when he made his international debut two years ago but he will not be able to take it as now it belongs to Xavi.

Fabregas would have loved to wear his Arsenal No 4 but this will be given to Marchena with Sergio Ramos waiting to take it in future.

The other slight change with the Gunner ace is that he will have 'Fabregas' printed as the name on the shirt rather than 'Cesc'.
