Cesc Fabregas earned the biggest win of his coaching career as his Como side shut down Napoli 2-1, limiting Romelu Lukaku to just eight touches before he was substituted.
Fabregas, managing Como in his first full season, masterminded an impressive 2-1 victory over Serie A title challengers Napoli. The tactical discipline of his team completely nullified former Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku, who registered just eight touches and a single blocked shot before being taken off by Antonio Conte in the 62nd minute.
Sitting 13th in the table with 28 points, Como are on course to avoid relegation, with Fabregas proving his potential as a future top-level coach. His possession-based, high-pressing style aligns with modern managerial trends—similar to Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca, who is under pressure after a poor run of form.
While Chelsea fans remain focused on their club’s struggles, Fabregas’ growing reputation in Italy raises the question: could he one day manage the Blues?
If Fabregas continues to succeed in Italy, it may not be long before he is linked with a managerial role at Stamford Bridge.
