Como boss Cesc Fàbregas’ special Barcelona clause revealed | OneFootball

Former Barcelona star Cesc Fàbregas ensured that a clause was included in his contract with Como, to make a potential future move back to Catalunya’s capital as straightforward as possible.

Fàbregas is for his part of course widely considered to be one of the standout up-and-coming tacticians in Europe at present.

After taking up the reins at the aforementioned Como back in the summer of 2024, the 39-year-old has since cemented himself firmly in the history books.

Following a top-4 finish in Serie A last season, ahead of the likes of Juventus and AC Milan, Fàbregas guided his troops into a first-ever Champions League campaign in 2026/27.

Not only that, but Como got their adventure in Europe up and running with a three-point haul at the expense of RB Leipzig.

All the while, though, Fàbregas is keeping a close eye on the job situations at three of his former employers… That’s according to Marca, citing Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, who reports:

‘Cesc Fàbregas was forward-thinking when he signed with Como. The Arenys de Mar native has a clause in his contract that allows him to leave under special, very affordable conditions should any of his former clubs – Barcelona, ​​Arsenal, or Chelsea – come to offer him a job.’

Barca, for the time being, remain more than happy with Hansi Flick, but Fàbregas is viewed as a potential long-term successor to the German at the Camp Nou.
