Danny Drinkwater, the former English international and Premier League champion with Leicester City, has taken a significant step in reviving his career by joining Como 1907 in Italy's Serie B. This move places him under the guidance of Cesc Fabregas, the former Arsenal and Chelsea star who now serves as both a player and mentor at the club.
Drinkwater’s Career Path:
- Leicester City (2012-2017): Drinkwater played a pivotal role in Leicester City’s historic Premier League title-winning campaign in 2015-2016, forming a formidable midfield partnership with N'Golo Kanté.

Cesc Fabregas’ Dual Role at Como: Since joining Como in 2022, Fabregas has not only contributed as a player but also taken on a coaching role, bringing his wealth of experience to the squad. Fabregas’ presence is expected to play a crucial role in Drinkwater’s development and adaptation to Italian football.
What This Move Means: For Drinkwater, the transfer to Como represents a fresh start. Working under a player-coach of Fabregas’ caliber offers an opportunity to rebuild his confidence and rediscover the form that made him a Premier League standout. For Como, acquiring an experienced midfielder like Drinkwater aligns with their ambitions to strengthen the squad and push for promotion to Serie A.
Drinkwater expressed his optimism about the move, stating, "Joining Como is a new chapter for me. It’s a chance to work with Cesc and learn from his incredible footballing journey. I’m eager to contribute and help the team achieve its goals."
