Cesc Fábregas leads Como to Champions League debut as head coach

Cesc Fábregas arrived at Como four years ago as a player, when the club still lacked a proper training centre and the squad changed kits in a local bar. Now, as head coach, he has led a youthful side to the club’s first Champions League campaign, sealing qualification with a 4‑1 triumph over Cremonese.

The achievement marks the most significant milestone in Como’s history and guarantees its debut on Europe’s biggest stage. Fábregas’ tactical vision and faith in young talent have been pivotal to this transformation.
