Former Spain international Cesc Fabregas has returned to former club Arsenal as he works on his coaching development, the Sun reports.
Fabregas has been working with Arsenal’s academy staff over the last few days.
He has been working alongside old teammate and current Arsenal Under18’s coach Jack Wilshere.
The pair played together for the Gunners between 2008 and 2011 and Wilshere took to Instagram to compliment the spaniard.
“Learning from the best football brain I know!
“As a player I wish I had the chance to play with this guy for longer but having the chance to pick his brain about certain situations and how he thinks about the game is invaluable.”
Fabregas is still playing and currently under contract with Italian second division side, Como.

The 35-year-old has made nine appearances for the side this season, but has only managed one assist.
Como haven’t been in action since boxing day and restart their season on January 14, giving Fabregas time to work with Arsenal.
The former Barcelona and Chelsea man joined the Italians in August 2022 and still has a year remaining on his deal with the club.
It has been reported that he is keen to move into management once he has retired and that is why he is currently working on his coaching with the league leaders.

…but Nigerian ex-internationals will retire from football and spend six years in retirement attending parties and political campaigns only to wake up one day to lay claim to being qualified enough to coach the SE because they played in 3 world cups and 10 seasons in Europe.
And one agabya too will be on the pages of print media hallucinating about an uncertified, untrained, unlicensed, uncharted and inexperience fellow leading the Super Eagles to the world cup simply because he retired over half a decade before then with 100 international appearances.
Dr grey you can be very funny…..odegbami who never played for any club outside of ibadan….now serving as professional informer to Sunday dare….ahahahaha
and spend six years in retirement attending parties and political campaigns
LOL….
Na MON all of Una dey mess like that? Nigerian Pele? Abi no be as Pele no play for Europe na so him self no play? I’m waiting for @Oakfield to come and make his own contribution as e be the main anti-Odegbami. Lol!
Seriously, it’s so sad. Even in the Current Arsenal team, Xhaka, Cedric Soares, Odegaard and Elneny have all started if not finish the first stage of their coaching corse while still playing but here na to dey settle for 442 formation up and down. Anyways, After all, we use an win nations cup 29 years ago. Lol.
