Ahead of the highly anticipated Serie A match against AC Milan, Como head coach Cesc Fabregas shared his insights in an interview with DAZN. The match, a recovery of the 19th round, is crucial for both teams as they aim to secure vital points.
Fabregas addressed the fitness of Nico Paz, stating, “Nico Paz is difficult; the physiotherapy team advised me not to play him. We’ll see.” This uncertainty surrounds Paz following an injury sustained during a previous match, raising concerns about his availability.
On the topic of new signing Maxence Caqueret, Fabregas expressed optimism, saying, “He is a quality player who always wants the ball in front of the defense. He will be an important addition for our style of play.” The coach emphasized Caqueret’s role in bringing stability to the midfield.
When asked how Como plans to approach the formidable Milan side, Fabregas noted, “We have studied their players well. With Conceição, they have changed a bit, but they are a talented squad built to win the championship. We need to put in a great performance to take home the three points.”
Reflecting on the presence of experienced players like Fofana, Fabregas remarked, “Fofana has already played in a World Cup final; we hope he doesn’t shine too much today. As I near the end of my career, I enjoy speaking with younger players because they are the future of football.”
