Florentino Pérez could make an unexpected decision if Carlo Ancelotti leaves Real Madrid this summer. The white president is reportedly considering Cesc Fábregas, the current Como coach, as a surprising option to lead the team, as reported by Defensa Central.

Ancelotti's future remains uncertain as his contract expires in 2026. Speculations about a possible move to the Brazil national team have gained momentum in recent months, considering what may happen after the 2025 Club World Cup in the United States. In light of this situation, Real Madrid is exploring potential replacements. Although Xabi Alonso is the top choice, his continuity at Bayer Leverkusen complicates the operation.

Cesc Fabregas, a new candidate for Real Madrid's bench

It is in this context that Fábregas's name emerges. The former Barcelona and Chelsea midfielder has started his coaching career at Como, an Italian club where he also holds roles within the sports structure. His lack of elite-level experience may work against him, but his high-level football knowledge and tactical vision make him a candidate to watch. His team has been one of the season's great revelations, showcasing a remarkable version of Nico Paz.

The possibility of seeing Fábregas on the Bernabéu bench would be an unexpected turn, especially considering his history as a player for the arch-rival. However, Florentino Pérez has shown in the past that he is not afraid to make bold decisions in pursuit of success. With the end of the season approaching, Real Madrid's bench future could hold a big surprise.
