Como look to Matic: Fabregas eyes reunion with Former Chelsea teammate

Como are intensifying their efforts to bring experienced midfielder Nemanja Matic to the club. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, the Serie A newcomers are in discussions with the 36-year-old Serbian international, currently playing for Olympique Lyon in Ligue 1.

Fabregas, who shared the pitch with Matic 105 times during their Chelsea days, is keen on reuniting with his former teammate. The Spanish coach believes Matic’s experience and reliability could significantly bolster Como’s midfield as they navigate their first season back in Italy’s top flight after more than two decades.

The club is carefully considering the terms of the potential deal, including the contract duration. Interestingly, Como is also exploring the possibility of offering Matic a role within the club structure post-retirement, demonstrating their long-term vision for the player’s involvement.

Matic, who has maintained impressive form despite his age, is open to the move but is reportedly only willing to consider the transfer under the right financial conditions. His current performances at Lyon, where he has been a key player in their recent resurgence, have caught Fabregas’ attention.
