Fàbregas to the Bundesliga? Cryptic Remarks Spark Bundesliga Coaching Speculations
Fueling intense conjecture, coach Cesc Fàbregas adds fuel to the fire with irritating phrases.
Get ready for a shakeup in the Bundesliga, as former football pro Cesc Fàbregas may be joining the ranks as a coach! His recent cryptic statements have got everyone buzzing about a potential move to Germany.
Following Como's impressive 3:1 win over Cagliari in the Italian football league, Fàbregas made some puzzling statements: "Whatever happens, I will always be grateful to the club for what it has given me. I am very proud of what has been built around Como. I want to leave a legacy when I leave. The one who comes after me will find a strong club."
When questioned about his future and the role of emotions, Como's surprise team of the season, Fàbregas replied: "When the moment comes, we will announce something." The two-time European champion was initially noncommittal when asked if those words were a farewell speech.
Como's Rising Star Coach
Fàbregas joined Como as a player in 2022 and quickly took over as head coach when the team was promoted to the first league in summer 2024. Since then, Como has been the unexpected sensation of the season, with Fàbregas earning Trainer of the Month for April [1]. Despite the recent accolade, Fàbregas still has a contract with Como until 2028 [1].
However, according to local media, intense negotiations with Fàbregas have been taking place, with Bayer Leverkusen bosses admitting they are in talks with the coach [1]. With Xabi Alonso announcing his departure to join Real Madrid, Leverkusen is on the hunt for a suitable successor, and Fàbregas seems to be on their shortlist [1].
Not only is Leverkusen interested, but RB Leipzig is also considering Fàbregas for their upcoming coaching vacancy [1]. Adding more intrigue to the situation, other candidates—such as Oliver Glasner, who manages Crystal Palace, and former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag—have also been named as contenders for the Leverkusen job [5].
Should Fàbregas ascend to the Bundesliga, Como may be left scrambling to find a suitable replacement. Among the possibilities is Davide Ancelotti, son of Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti [2].
Stay tuned as we anxiously await the official announcement of Fàbregas's next step in his coaching career!
