The prominent Spaniard left the European champions' youth ranks for the Gunners six years ago in quest for first-team football, but his comeback to Barcelona has always been anticipated.
Fabregas, who's also at the top of Real Mardid's summer wish list, assured a week ago that he wouldn't leave Arsenal this summer.
However, Barca president Laporta believes 'the Barcelona DNA' will urge the 22-year-old to go back to where he started his career.
"Cesc Fabregas has the Barcelona DNA in his body and we know that he wants to play for this club," Laporta told Cadena Cope.
"At the moment he is the leader at Arsenal and a very important player for them. But Cesc is wanted by me, by the coach Pep Guardiola and by the sport director Txiki Begiristain.
"We are concentrating all of our efforts on it, but at the same time we have a lot of respect for Arsenal.
"We have positive relations with Arsenal so it will not be an easy topic to talk to them about."
Over the past years, Fabregas has established himself as a key figure in Spain's squad. He's also an indispensable player at Arsenal.
