He was the best friend of Messi and Antonela, humiliated Real Madrid, now he retires from soccer

Cesc Fábregas, an important player in the successes of Spanish football in the last 15 years, has just announced on his social networks the end of his career as a professional. The Catalan, who finished this season with Como 1907, an Italian Serie B team, has decided to put an end to his career after 21 years of football at the highest level.

Fàbregas trained at La Masía from a very young age, where he met Lionel Messi and Gerard Piqué. After considering that at Barcelona he was not going to have a chance at that time, because there were world stars in midfield, he moved to Arsenal in 2003 and later became a fixture for the Gunners.

He was part of the team that won the historic Premier League unbeaten in 2004 and also went on to win the FA Cup and the Community Shield. With Spain, Fábregas was very important in all his achievements, both in the 2010 World Cup and in the 2008 and 2012 Euro Cups. He was the one who gave Iniesta the assist in South Africa in the final, the most important goal in the history of the Red.

The transfer of him to Barcelona and how he ended up in the B of Italy

In 2011 he returned to Barcelona in exchange for 35 million. He was key in decisive moments and managed to get 6 titles. In 2014 he moved to Chelsea, where he also succeeded with 4 titles. In 2018 he moved to Monaco, a club where he spent 4 years and barely added 54 games. He then went to Como to seek tranquility outside of the demands and now to hang up his boots definitively.
