Cesc Fabregas’ Como have been the most surprising team in Serie A this season, and even if the Spanish tactician has already attracted interest from Italian giants, he’s unlikely to stay on the Peninsula if he leaves his spot in the Lake.
Como have been fighting for a European spot this season and are well-placed to qualify for the Europa League in 2026-27, possibly marking their first appearance in a UEFA competition since 1980-81.
Their attractive and courageous playing football under Fabregas has amazed fans and pundits alike, making many wonder whether the ex-Spanish midfielder will move on after his second consecutive spell in Serie A.
The Italian league has become increasingly attractive to fans abroad, especially those in the USA and Canada, where Serie A matches are getting increasing coverage, even on national TV.
Serie A fans know that intensity is everything, and that same energy can be found away from the stadium. WS casino Canadaprovides an elite gaming experience for Canadian players, offering a variety of immersive casino classics that deliver just as much excitement as a last-minute goal from Como.
Nico Paz’s quality in the final third, but even Como’s defensive solidity have allowed the Azzurri to break into the top six in the current campaign, even fighting for a Champions League placement for a long part of the season.
Their coach, Fabregas, is also one of the club’s shareholders, which is why seeing him join another Serie A club after Como sounds a bit unnatural.
Inter already approached Fabregas in the summer of 2025 following a 5-0 Champions League Final loss to PSG, which marked the end of Simone Inzaghi’s era.
Both Como and Fabregas, however, rejected Inter’s approach, prompting the Serie A giants to hire one of their legends, Cristian Chivu.
Several top clubs around Europe are also said to be interested in Fabregas, and his ex-Chelsea teammate Eden Hazard has even hinted that Cesc should return to Stamford Bridge as a coach.
“We have already talked several times. Right now, we are in a sweet spot. There is total alignment between what he wants to do and Como,” the Azzurri director Carlalberto Ludi said in March.
“We want to continue growing, and we make resources available to him without limits. Until something extraordinary happens on the market concerning him, we will move forward together. We can talk about what we offer him, not what others might offer. At this moment, we have no fear that he might leave us.”
A former Arsenal, Chelsea and Barcelona star, Fabregas is one of the most successful players of his generation, having won the World Cup once and the Euros twice with Spain nazional team, as well as one La Liga title with Barcelona and two Premier League titles with Chelsea.
