Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has been heavily linked with the position but it’s understood his preference would be to stay in the Premier League.

According to Sky Germany reporter Philipp Hinze, Fabregas, 37, is a ‘concrete’ option for the Bundesliga outfit due to his impressive spell in Italy. 

Fabregas led Como to promotion to the Serie A for the first time in 21 years and currently has them sitting in 13th.
