Cesc Fàbregas has a clause in his contract with Como 1907 that allows FC Barcelona, Arsenal, and Chelsea to hire him as a coach by paying a fixed amount. The three former clubs of the coach could take him out of Italy without having to negotiate his departure with Como beforehand.

The specific amount to activate this contractual condition has not been disclosed. The clause provides a direct route for any of the three teams to bring Fàbregas back should they decide to bet on him for their bench.

Cesc Fàbregas has an open door to return to FC Barcelona

As reported by AS, this situation holds special significance for FC Barcelona. Hansi Flick remains in charge of the team, and the club is pleased with his work, but they are also evaluating long-term scenarios for the bench, with Fàbregas' name surfacing in recent weeks.

Sergio Busquets spoke earlier this month about this possibility. The former midfielder, currently assisting Juliano Belletti in the Barcelona B team, believes his former teammate is on a path that could lead him to manage Barcelona in the future.

The clause would remove a significant obstacle in a potential operation. If Barça decides to hire Cesc Fàbregas, they would not need to reach an economic agreement with Como 1907 first; they would simply pay the established amount in his contract.

There is currently no open negotiation to replace Flick. The German coach is continuing his duties normally, and the team has started the 2026/27 season with seven wins in the first seven matchdays of LaLiga, in addition to a 5-1 victory against Feyenoord in the Champions League debut.

Arsenal and Chelsea can also activate the clause

Arsenal holds the exact same contractual possibility. Fàbregas is familiar with the club after playing 303 official matches during his time as a player in London, between 2003 and 2011, before returning to Barcelona.

The third team included is Chelsea, where he played from 2014 to 2019. Therefore, any action from London would have different conditions compared to other clubs interested in hiring the coach: both Arsenal and Chelsea can rely on the predetermined amount.

The clause gains importance due to Fàbregas' progression since starting his coaching career. The 39-year-old coach led Como to Serie A and subsequently qualified the Italian team for the 2026/27 Champions League.

The Italian project has also continued to strengthen during this summer. Como signed, among others, Luis Milla from Getafe with a contract until 2029. The midfielder had provided 10 assists in 37 LaLiga matches in the previous season.

Como 1907 loses negotiation power

The unique contractual aspect limits the room for maneuver for Como 1907 if any of Fàbregas' former teams decide to make a move. Unlike other potential suitors, the Italian club could freely negotiate the terms of an exit; with Barcelona, Arsenal, or Chelsea, the amount is already set.

As of now, there is no information that any of the three clubs have initiated an operation to hire him. The situation will depend on what happens with their respective benches, especially in Barcelona regarding Flick's continuity.

The next step is therefore conditioned on a decision from one of these clubs. If FC Barcelona, Arsenal, or Chelsea call Cesc Fàbregas, the clause allows his departure to be activated with a predetermined amount, the specific value of which has not been disclosed, without the need for conventional negotiations with Como.
