The coach Cesc Fàbregas, who is reportedly being heavily courted by Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig, is apparently not moving to the Bundesliga. According to information from Sky Italia, the Spanish World and European Champion will remain loyal to his current club Como 1907. According to the report, there have been positive talks between the Italian first division club and the 38-year-old. According to Sky, Fàbregas can hope for a pay rise. He is under contract at Lake Como until 2028.
Cryptic statements spark speculation
However, Fàbregas recently fuelled speculation about a possible move to the Bundesliga as a coach with cryptic statements. He said at the weekend after a 3-1 win against Cagliari: "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. Whoever comes after me will find a strong club."
The 2010 world champion and two-time European champion was asked about his future and what role emotions played in the decision. Como have been the biggest surprise of the Serie A season under Fàbregas. "When the moment comes, we will announce something," he said.
