Meanwhile Fabregas appeared to have spent a little too long in the sun- his chest an uncomfortable looking shade of red - Carla placing her hands on his chest as they arose from their loungers.

But after spending an inactive few hours topping up their tans, the footballer and his partner headed out to sea for an adrenalin rush aboard a jet ski.

For this endeavour she changed into a pale lilac two-piece and Essex-style wedge heels.

They then headed out to sea on board a jet ski for an exciting whizz around in the sea together.

Early last month it was reported that Cesc and his long-term girlfriend, Carla Garcia, had split up.

In The Sun newspaper it was claimed that his father had confirmed the young lovers ended their relationship after seven years together.

His father Francesc apparently explained his son was ’cut up’ over the split, but made the brave decision after their relationship simply ran its course.

He said: ’The decision to end the relationship was more his than Carla’s.

’It’s a shame. They had been together for a long time and she was a lovely girl.

’But Cesc wants to be on his own. He preferred to end things before there were children or things like that.’

The couple fell in love as teenagers back in their native Spain and were a couple when the 16-year-old Cesc was signed by Arsenal from Barcelona.

Barcelona are now said to want Fabregas to return to Spain and play for them once again, with a staggering £50million alleged to be on the table.

The Catalan club are rumoured to be so keen to prise Fabregas away from Arsenal that they are putting recent signing David Villa up for sale.

A source at Barcelona allegedly claimed that the team’s coach has Fabregas down as his No 1 summer target.

They claimed: ’Guardiola has a list of players he is prepared to move on to give him more spending power in the transfer market, but Villa is definitely not on that list.

’Ideally, he wants to keep Villa – especially after the impact he made in his first campaign with Barca. He sees David as a big player as his side push for more trophies next season.

’But he also knows that he may have to sacrifice Villa to finance incoming deals. And Manchester City and Chelsea would be very happy to buy Villa.’
