Fabregas speaks about EPL

After a decorated playing career in England, Fabregas is now making a name for himself in the dugout. 

He has overseen Como's remarkable transformation from a Serie B side to Serie A European contenders, but has made no secret of his desire to eventually manage in the English top flight.

"The Premier League is the best league in the world," Fabregas told Telegraph Sport. "I’ve always been very, very clear about it. I felt it as a player, I feel it as a coach, as a fan."

Drawing on advice from a former manager, he added: "But [Jose] Mourinho told me one day when I was at Chelsea: ‘I still have 30 years to work.’ So I could be here [Como] for 10 years, and you can still go to the Premier League in 12, 15 years. 

“Football is so unpredictable, it changes in one second... Let’s enjoy the moment. It’s beautiful what we are living here. Let’s see what the future holds."
