“Nico is a Como player. Real Madrid can buy him back, but at a certain price, Nico is a young player, and our relationship with his family is very stable. They [Paz’s family] are very happy, they thank us for all this, and it is a great pleasure for us to have him here. Nico is our brand, and we want him to continue with us for many years to come.”

The former Barcelona star concluded by pointing out his side were looking to build a future with the midfielder, adding:

“Even if Real Madrid don’t want to buy him back, Como won’t sell him for 40 or 50 million because we want to create a future, an identity with this group of talented young players. We are working slowly and quietly to have him with us. All of us, starting with the club and the president, know what we have to do. In three or four years, Como can become a very strong team.”

Fabregas has enjoyed a fabulous season with Como in Serie A, sitting in 13th place, six points clear of the relegation places, with 11 games left to play.
