- Fabregas clarified Messi’s Como visit was personal
- Wife’s attendance at friendly clash sparked questions
- Coach left transfer rumours open-ended
Messi’s wife was recently seen in the stands during Como’s preseason friendly against Lille at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia. Her presence, along with the Fabregas and Messi families’ close ties, sparked hopeful speculation about an unlikely move to the الدوري الإيطالي side. Como coach Fabregas, however, has explained that Messi was in Italy on holiday, staying at the Spanish legend’s house.
While Messi is currently contracted to Inter Miami, where he has scored 24 goals in 29 appearances in 2025 and continues to be a standout performer in MLS, but many have raised questions about his future. Como have shown major ambition in the transfer market, investing over €100 million to bolster the squad. Although there are no ongoing negotiations regarding Messi, Fabregas’ words left the door open for future possibilities, fueling excitement among Como supporters amid the club’s rapid rise.
Speaking of the Messi-Como dream, Fabregas said, “Messi at Como? Never say never. He was at my house on vacation, he was traveling to see some friends, and we are friends, our wives and our children too. But he’s in the United States now.”
Messi is focused on Inter Miami’s ongoing MLS campaign and upcoming Leagues Cup fixtures. His contract with the U.S. club runs through December 2025. Como, under Fabregas, continue to prepare for their first Serie A season after promotion, with further reinforcements expected. Moreover, he gave a huge verdict on the AC Milan clash in Australia.
