You have been warned: don’t spread rumours about Cesc Fabregas’ future or he’ll post a mildly irritated message on Instagram.

The Chelsea midfielder, who hasn’t yet started a Premier League game under new boss Antonio Conte, has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, but he responded with a photo of himself lifting the Premier League trophy in a Chelsea shirt.

Contrary to what has been written, the manager and I have a good relationship and he has NEVER told me that I can leave. He said that he counts on me, as I count on him. I will continue to fight for this club until the very end and when called upon I will always give my very best. I'm fully committed to @chelseafc and my only goal is to help them win more trophies. #ChelseaFC
