Guardiola wants deals done

Barca have now failed three times to re-sign Cesc Fabregas from Arsenal and their pursuit of Alexis Sanchez is also becoming a prolonged affair.

Guardiola is reportedly becoming frustrated with the lack of progress and it is damaging his relationship with Barca president Sandro Rosell, who he blames for the failure to sign Fabregas.

The Barca boss said on Catalunya Radio: "Now the situation about moves for reinforcements is very complicated, but I'm hopeful in the next few days it will become clear.

"I'm always optimistic."
