In the last year or so, Serie A side Como have managed to battle away Inter in a bid to keep Cesc Fabregas at the club. The Spaniard continues to make a mark at the lakeside club but details of a favourable clause for Chelsea and Arsenal has now emerged.

Gianluca Di Marzio spoke to Greek outlet Betarades about the Como boss’ situation. He is certain Fabregas will leave at some point in the future.

He said: “Fabregas will only leave Como for a super top club like Barcelona or Arsenal, but they renewed Flick’s contract and Arsenal are obviously happy with Arteta. I don’t see him going to the first top club that needs him.”

Di Marzio also clarified that Fabregas has never been in a rush to make the next step, which has led to him rejecting several clubs.

“He’s like a calculator. He knows he’s going to coach one of these top clubs. He’s not in a hurry because, even last year, he said no to Inter, no to Roma, he said no to Bayer Leverkusen, and also Como didn’t want to let him go.”

Further, he noted that Fabregas’ current deal has a contract which favours his former clubs Barcelona, Arsenal and Chelsea.

“He had a release clause for top clubs like Chelsea, Arsenal and Barcelona, ​​so it depends on which of those clubs starts to struggle. Everything can change. I think the problem for Como will be to find a new Fabregas, a new coach with his charisma, with his leadership, with his ideas, with his vision.”

Di Marzio also tipped Alberto Aquilani to possibly replace Fabregas, if the Spaniard ends up at Arsenal or Chelsea in the future.
