😱 Inter go all out for Fabregas: today is the decisive day, the latest ⏳Yesterday was a long day for Inter and Marotta, in search of a new coach to address Simone Inzaghi's departure.
We already know, Marotta's main target is none other than Cesc Fàbregas: the Como coach would represent the man to rejuvenate a team that needs a fresh start and to restore motivation after the débacle in the final against PSG.
Let's see what the situation is after yesterday's long, very long day.
🧱 THE COMO WALL
Yesterday afternoon, the negotiation seemed to have faded, partly due to the joint public appearance of Mirwan Suwarso and Cesc Fabregas at a conference by The Athletic.
The words of the president and the coach themselves suggested a complete closure: "We have a long-term project and Cesc Fabregas is a crucial part of it: he will not leave the club".

— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) June 4, 2025This centrality was also confirmed by the coach's words: "I started at Como because I was thinking of a long-term project. Here I can work the way I want. I don't want to end my career at a club where there's a project for 1-2 years and then everything ends. A process is always needed, which you can do at Como, while in top teams it's very difficult because clubs and fans there want to win immediately".
Words that, however, testify to a strong attachment to Como and not a definitive closure to Inter.
👀 THE FIRST MEETING: THE FEELINGS
The negotiation continued to simmer under the surface, and in the evening Ausilio and Fabregas met, without Como having given its consent to a negotiation.
According to Di Marzio in the evening: "Como has no intention of letting him go. Only if Fabregas really pushes could the situation open up".

— Gianluca Di Marzio (@DiMarzio) June 4, 2025According to Fabrizio Romano in the evening, a second meeting has been scheduled for today, a meeting in which a final decision will be made.

In short, to unlock the situation, Fabregas himself needs to want to push, but according to Pedullà, there are doubts from the Catalan regarding the plans presented by Ausilio, both in terms of the contract (Fabregas is asking for a three-year deal plus an option) and the transfer market.
#Fabregas ha incontrato #Ausilio a #Londra, ha chiesto triennale più opzione e ci sono distanze di idee sul piano mercato. Un punto a favore del #Como che - a prescindere dalle parole - sapeva che Cesc avrebbe forzato solo se fosse stato sicuro del piano #Inter. E forzerà solo in…
— Alfredo Pedullà (@AlfredoPedulla) June 4, 2025Time is running out for Inter, who also have the Club World Cup to prepare for. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter would like to announce the new coach within 48 hours, trusting that Fabregas might push with Como, but the negotiation is difficult and, above all, ready to change at any moment.
INTER'S PLAN 🅱️
If the negotiation with Fabregas does not go through, what other profiles are being considered by the Nerazzurri management?
Currently, the most likely option is Patrick Vieira, for whom it would be necessary to pay the 500,000 euro clause (writes Di Marzio) in his contract with Genoa to release him in time for the Club World Cup.

— Gianluca Di Marzio (@DiMarzio) June 4, 2025The other alternative is Cristian Chivu, while names like Thiago Motta and Roberto De Zerbi remain more in the background.
What is certain is that Inter has gone all-in on the Como coach, and the alternatives are far behind Fabregas in the eyes of the Nerazzurri management.
