Arsenal are reportedly among the clubs keeping an eye on Como manager Cesc Fàbregas.
Reports from Spain over the weekend claimed that the Gunners could sack Mikel Arteta if he fails to win either the Premier League or the Champions League this season.
The report also added that Arsenal have already identified Como manager and former Gunner Cesc Fàbregas as a potential replacement should the club decide to move on from Mikel Arteta.
Now, a fresh update has emerged on Fàbregas’ future.

It is understood that contract talks between Arteta and Arsenal are set to take place this summer, with initial discussions already having been held.
However, should Arteta once again fail to win major silverware at the end of this season, questions about the club’s long-term direction could be raised, and it is believed Fàbregas is among the names being considered at the Emirates.

It is claimed that Chelsea and Manchester City are also monitoring Fàbregas’ situation, with both clubs potentially in need of a new manager in the foreseeable future.
Sources close to the Spanish coach say that he is fully committed to his work at Como, with no current plans to leave as things stand.
