Reports in recent months have linked him with clubs such as Inter Milan and Bayer Leverkusen, while pundits have increasingly tipped him as a future managerial candidate for Arsenal, where he previously served as captain.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Cesc is really very important for us, but we would be stupid not to think that one day he could go to <em><strong>ARSENAL<\/strong><\/em>Barcelona or Chelsea,&#8217; Como&#8217;s chief told Italian outlet Revista Undici.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018If he continues to win with us or in any case to be successful, even if I cannot speak for him, I believe he could have bigger dreams. Having said that, I hope that as long as he is here he will help us create a success plan also for those who will have to replace him.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018For me, when he leaves, if he ever leaves, he should be the one to choose who will take his place. He should be involved in the choice.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Being a member of the Board of Football, he will have to help us appoint the next coach.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Fabregas, who is also part of Como\u2019s board, has previously spoken about building a lasting legacy at the club, suggesting any departure would come only after establishing a sustainable sporting project.<\/p>\n<p>For now, however, Como remain focused on their on-field ambitions, with the team currently occupying a top-four position in Serie A and pushing for European qualification<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>MORE ARSENAL NEWS AND GOSSIP \u2013 <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Latest: <strong>Sorry Chelsea: \u00a3130M star wants Arteta link-up and Arsenal move<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most Read:\u00a0Mikel Arteta green light for \u00a3250k-a-week star LEAVE Arsenal \u2013 Dowman plans made<\/p>\n<p>Must Check Out: <strong>Arteta green light \u00a360M star leave \u2013 Arsenal can sign worldie for \u00a3130m \u2013 Agent tells Arsenal \u00a3100M target wants move<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>LOVE ARSENAL?
