The Chelsea midfielder isn’t going to get his dream move to La Liga

When Cesc Fabregas realized his time at Chelsea needed to end, he immediately tried to secure a move to La Liga giants like Barcelona or Real Madrid. Unfortunately for the Spanish midfielder, it seems as if a move to Serie A is his only escape route.

ESPN reports that both AC Milan and Inter are registering interest in the 29-year-old. It’s unclear whether or not Fabregas would be interested in a move to Serie A.

Frankly, I’m not convinced that Fabregas is going to be have much of a choice in the matter. Unless he’s willing to rot on the bench at Chelsea, he can’t afford to be too picky about his next club. There aren’t exactly tons of clubs knocking down his door at the moment.

The reality is that Serie A might be the best place for him at the moment. He’s fallen out of favor in the Premier League due to his struggles with the pace of England’s top-flight. The pace of play in Italy is significantly slower. That would allow Fabregas a lot more time to showcase his skill on the ball.

It’s tough for any world-class player to cope with the fact that he isn’t at the top of the mountain anymore. Cesc Fabregas needs to deal with the harsh realization that he isn’t in a position to secure his dream move away from Stamford Bridge. Instead, the former Arsenal man would do well to accept a Serie A lifeline.
