Cesc Fabregas No Longer Headed to RB Leipzig: Owner's Bombshell Announcement
As the owner verifies, heat dampers installed for RB Leipzig
Stay connected: Facebook Twitter Whatsapp E-Mail Print Copy Link We've got some shocking news for RB Leipzig fans: Cesc Fabregas won't be joining the ranks as their coach.
Mirwan Suwarso, Como 1907's owner, confirmed this during a event in London. He emphatically stated, "Cesc Fabregas is a vital part of our long-term vision. He's not leaving." Fabregas himself was seated beside Suwarso on the stage, adding a touch of intrigue to the announcement.
"I came here because I believed in a long-term project. I truly believe in Como's long-term project," Fabregas said, echoing Suwarso's sentiments.
Failed Pursuits by Leipzig and Klopp
Fabregas is still contractually bound to Como until 2028, a fact that has hampered any potential move to the Bundesliga team. Moreover, his role as a shareholder further complicates matters. Leipzig had actively pursued Fabregas, with offerings from global football chief Jürgen Klopp, but to no avail [1].
Reports suggest that Fabregas, despite the club not playing internationally for the first time since their Bundesliga promotion, was not averse to a move to Saxony [1]. However, Como has maintained their stance of keeping Fabregas, reminiscent of their decision with Bayer Leverkusen [2].
Inter Milan Joins the Race
Rumors about Fabregas's potential move have started swirling again. According to recent reports, Inter Milan, last season's Champions League finalists, are eager to secure Fabregas as a replacement for outgoing coach Simone Inzaghi [3]. Inzaghi is set to take up a position in Saudi Arabia, leaving a vacancy at Inter.
However, the odds of Inter landing Fabregas seem slim, given Como's resolute stance on letting him go [3].

Although Cesc Fabregas was previously linked with a move to RB Leipzig, the European leagues’ midfield maestro has instead offered his services to Como 1907 due to his commitment to their long-term project, a decision that hinders any potential transfer to the Bundesliga team.
In contrast to Leipzig's pursuit, there are new reports suggesting that Fabregas might be enticed by Inter Milan's interest, particularly given their recent success in the Champions League, yet his loyalty to Como remains unwavering, making such a move unlikely.
