Despite a strong attempt by Bayer Leverkusen and being on the radar of a couple of top teams, Cesc Fabregas is expected to stay on the Como bench out of loyalty, as he’s under contract until 2028. The club had entrusted him while he had yet to get a coaching license. Moreover, it is giving him ample power on the transfer market, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.
The gaffer and the management are working on a few acquisitions already. In particular, they are eying Barcelona’s Eric Garcia, Roma’s Bryan Cristante, and Deportivo La Coruna’s Yeremay Hernandez.
As for Juventus, Igor Tudor has a real shot at being confirmed. Holding onto fourth place would help the team make the call. The only concrete alternative for the Bianconeri is Antonio Conte. The Croat has clicked with director Cristiano Giuntoli. The two share the same vision, as they believe the squad is ready to compete for the Scudetto with two or three coups.
Roma won’t be able to lure Fabregas, but they might land Patrick Vieira. According to Tuttomercatoweb, Genoa got the sense that the gaffer would depart to head either to the Giallorossi or abroad. They have reached out to Paulo Sousa, who’s currently at Shabab Al-Ahli in the UAE.
Verona had a midseason ownership change, which could lead to a front office overhaul, even though the season has gone reasonably well, L’Arena reports (via Fantacalcio). The higher-ups are mulling over hiring director Frederic Massara and Jorge Sampaoli.
It’s good news for Como, the League, and the top Serie A teams that will have a chance to poach him in the next few years.
