Cesc Fàbregas has requested a substantial investment from Como during this winter transfer window to ensure the team’s survival in Serie A and maintain their competitive edge. Although there have been some high-profile moves, the Spanish midfielder believes the squad is still incomplete and is pushing for at least three more signings. All of these players are expected to come from Barcelona, where Fàbregas appears to have identified valuable assets.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Fàbregas is keen to strengthen his squad by bringing in up to three Barcelona players. The loan of young Álex Valle to Como has already been confirmed, marking the end of his spell with Celtic, where he had lost prominence. Como offers Valle a more significant role, which he will likely embrace.
However, Valle is not Fàbregas’s only target from Barça. President Joan Laporta is fully aware of Como’s interest and understands that the Serie A club could become a crucial partner before the transfer window closes. Alongside Valle, two other high-profile players—Ansu Fati and Eric García—could potentially make the move to Como, with both players likely to be part of Fàbregas’s plans to strengthen the team.
Ansu Fati is fully aware that he is not part of Hansi Flick’s plans at Barcelona, and his best option is to leave the club immediately. He has been excluded from recent squad selections, and the coach has made it clear in person that he won’t be getting playing time. Fati needs regular minutes, and Cesc Fàbregas is offering him a pivotal role at Como in Serie A, potentially even as a starter.
However, besides Como, Fati has also caught the attention of several La Liga clubs interested in taking him on loan, including Betis and Sevilla.
The third player in question is Eric García, whose situation is different and involves a transfer fee. With Ronald Araújo remaining at Barcelona, García’s role at the club is likely to diminish, and he may choose to leave. His departure could be crucial for strengthening the team, and while Girona and Real Sociedad have shown interest, Como is also emerging as a strong contender for his signature.
FC Barcelona is hoping to secure around 15 million euros from the sale of Eric García, and Como’s interest in the player is seen as a positive sign. While it’s still a waiting game for any developments, Cesc Fàbregas is fully committed to strengthening his squad, and Joan Laporta is well aware that this is the moment to make crucial deals.
