If Como has faced a ‘rough patch’ in the 2025-26 season, this is it. Two straight losses, three games without a win, and slipping out of a Champions League zone they had defended just a month ago—when a glorious 5-0 win over Pisa and a standout performance placed them ahead of teams like Juventus and Roma.
Now, however, they arrive ‘battered’ for the second leg of the Coppa Italia semifinals (0-0 in the first leg against Inter in Como), chasing the first title in their history. But one thing the Lombardy club has done is reinforce—of course—the position held by Cesc Fàbregas, Como’s head coach.
‘Cesc’s experience is helping him become a top-level coach. He’s a champion, I have no doubt, even though he’s been in his new role for a short time. His career is an added value; he manages to transmit it and creates empathy within the team. He approaches training and matches with incredible intensity. He has impressive drive and energy. Tomorrow will simply be another day where he gives everything to lead the team to victory,’ said Carlalberto Ludi, Como’s sporting director for several years.

A summer is expected where talk about Cesc’s future will certainly surface again. Last season, clubs like Inter, Monaco, and Bayer Leverkusen knocked on his door, but the Catalan coach chose the brilliant project he leads in northern Italy.
