Cesc Fabregas Responds to Manchester United Manager Links

Cesc Fabregas has refused to discuss speculation linking him with the Manchester United managerial job, insisting that commenting on the rumours would be disrespectful to their current boss - Michael Carrick. The Como head coach addressed the issue ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League meeting between the two clubs.

The Spaniard has attracted attention after guiding Como from Serie B to the Champions League in a remarkably short period. After helping the club secure promotion to Italy’s top flight in 2024, Fabregas led them to a fourth-place finish last season, earning Como a place among Europe’s elite.

Fabregas also praised United’s history and the quality of their squad, describing the upcoming fixture as a special occasion for Como, their supporters and the city. He stressed that his team would approach the match with respect but would still try to compete for all three points.

The 39-year-old has built a reputation as one of Europe’s promising young coaches, with Como’s rapid progress increasing interest in his future. However, he made no commitment regarding a possible move to the Premier League, keeping the focus on his current role in Italy.
