"I really believe in Como's long-term project, I arrived here as a player and I'm very, very happy because I can work here the way I want."

Fabregas going nowhere- Suwarso

Como president, Mirwan Suwarso has confirmed that Cesc Fabregas remains committed to the club for the upcoming season.

Suwarso stated that the club’s leadership is pleased with their progress during their debut Serie A campaign. He said:

"Our path is long, it will last for several seasons and it revolves around Cesc Fabregas, who will not leave the club."

Fabregas is also a shareholder in the club where he ended his playing career.

Legit.ng earlier reported that Inter Milan's players received the coldest reception ever on their return to Italy following their humiliating 5-0 loss to Paris Saint-Germain in the 2025 UEFA Champions League final.

The team landed at Milan’s Malpensa Airport on Sunday expecting some support, but were met by just one solitary fan, Marco, who stood alone in the arrivals area.

His lonely presence has become symbolic of the emotional disconnect between the club and its fanbase after a devastating end to a once-promising season.
