Party time for Como! Coach Cesc Fabregas follows through on pledge to bankroll weekend in Ibiza after Serie A promotion

Como’s journey to Serie A is a tale of perseverance and resilience. Their efforts culminated in a thrilling 1-1 draw against Cosenza on the final day of the Serie B season, securing their promotion to the top flight for the first time in two decades.

In the aftermath of their promotion-clinching game, Fabregas delivered a rousing speech in the dressing room whereby he reminded the players of the challenges that lie ahead in Serie A and also promised a sponsored trip to Ibiza.

True to his word, Fabregas arranged for a private flight and covered the accommodation costs on the Spanish island. The trip, which started on Friday morning, was shared on social media by striker Patrick Cutrone. His Instagram story featured a host of players embarking on their journey. The striker expressed his gratitude to Fabregas with a small note that read: "Grazie @cescf4bregas".

France legend Thierry Henry happens to be a shareholder at Como and was present in the stands to witness his side secure promotion to Serie A after a hiatus of more than two decades.

Fabregas' commitment to Como is evident in his actions, from his leadership on the field to his generous gesture of rewarding the players with a trip to Ibiza. This promotion to Serie A is a monumental achievement for the club, marking the culmination of years of hard work and strategic planning. As they celebrate this success, the team is also gearing up for the challenges ahead, ready to face the rigours of top-flight football with renewed vigour and determination.
