Official, He Asks to Leave Real Madrid Now: He Eyes Cesc Fàbregas's Como, Leaves for Free

Cesc Fàbregas is interested in a young prospect from Real Madrid's academy to strengthen his project at Como

Jesús Fortea's future at Real Madrid is hanging in the air. The young right-back, one of the great promises of the white academy, still hasn't renewed his contract and his continuity is in doubt.

In this situation, Como 1907, a team managed by Cesc Fàbregas, has shown great interest in acquiring his services. With his contract valid until 2026, but no renewal agreement in sight, his departure seems increasingly likely.

Como, an Attractive Destination

Como is building an ambitious project and is betting on young talent. Last year they acquired Nico Paz, and now they have set their sights on Fortea. Como, which aspires to promotion in Serie B, wants Fortea to strengthen their defense.

Under Fàbregas's direction, the club has shown that they are not afraid to trust young footballers. Players like Iván Azón, Assane Diao, and Álex Valle have found an opportunity to grow at Como. The possibility of getting minutes and being a protagonist could be a decisive factor for Fortea.

Real Madrid Doesn't Close the Door

In Valdebebas, they value Fortea's talent, but they know that retaining him won't be easy. If Fortea doesn't renew, Madrid could negotiate his departure before 2026.

The philosophy of the white club is clear: anyone not committed to the project can seek an exit. Although the initial intention is for Fortea to stay, a negotiation is not ruled out if Como or another club presents an attractive proposal.

A Key Step in His Career

Fortea is at a decisive moment. Staying at Real Madrid would mean continuing to fight for a place in Castilla and, eventually, in the first team. However, the competition is fierce and opportunities for academy players are often limited.

On the other hand, if he chooses Como, he would have the chance to play more regularly in a competitive league and under a coach who bets on young talents. Fàbregas's presence could be key to his decision.

Imminent Decision

In the coming months, Fortea's future will be defined. If he doesn't renew with Madrid, his departure could be brought forward. Como is ready to welcome him and offer him an important role in their team.

Everything will depend on the player's choice. Stay in Valdebebas with the hope of succeeding at Madrid or bet on Italy and a growing project. The decision is in his hands.
