Milan Legend Urges Fabregas to Strengthen Como’s Defense

Cesc Fabregas has received advice from an AC Milan legend to focus more on defensive organization in his tactics at Como — a club owned by Indonesian investors that currently sits mid-table in Serie A.

In his debut season as head coach, Fabregas has guided Como to play attractive, attacking football — making them one of the most entertaining teams to watch in Italy. The 37-year-old’s offensive approach stands in contrast to the traditional Italian football philosophy, which typically prioritizes defensive solidity.

Como have secured safety from relegation since last week — a milestone that validates Fabregas‘ tactical vision. Still, the AC Milan legend emphasized the importance of balance, noting that in Italian football, titles are often won not by the teams that score the most, but by those that concede the least.
