Fabregas Considered for Leipzig Job
RB Leipzig is currently exploring options for a new head coach following the departure of Marco Rose, with Cesc Fabregas, who is presently managing Como in Serie A, emerging as a notable candidate.
Fabregas’s Role at Como
Cesc Fabregas has been successfully managing Como, guiding the team to thirteenth place in Serie A with a total of 33 points this season. His contract with the club is secured until mid-2028, which would likely necessitate a transfer fee if Leipzig decides to pursue him.
Other Coaching Candidates
In addition to Fabregas, Leipzig is considering a range of other experienced candidates for the head coach role. Among them are Oliver Glasner, currently at Crystal Palace, Danny Rohl from Sheffield Wednesday, and Roger Schmidt, who is currently without a club. The club is carefully evaluating the potential impact of each coach on their upcoming season.
Connections and Influence within Football
Thierry Henry, who has been a shareholder at Como since 2022, may assist in the coaching decision process. His established relationship with RB Leipzig’s director of football strategy, Oliver Mintzlaff, could be advantageous in facilitating discussions and transitional efforts in the hiring process.
