Como manager, Cesc Fabregas has confirmed that he wanted to sign Barcelona player Eric García for his club in the last transfer window.

According to Fabregas, the 24-year-old is a versatile player and very good player.

He spoke at his pre-match press conference ahead of Como’s Serie A clash with Cagliari on Saturday afternoon.

Fabregas, however, admitted that the Spainsh player will remain at Barcelona.

“We wanted and still want Eric García at Como, he’s versatile and very good player… but he will stay at Barça,” Fabregas was quoted by Fabrizio Romano as saying.

Garcia, who almost left Barcelona in the January transfer window, has gone on to become an important squad member at Barcelona and their manager Hansi Flick seems a big fan.

Garcia’s versatility has been really useful to Flick and it seems likely he will continue at the club and could even be offered a new contract at the end of the season.

Super Eagles playmaker, Alex Iwobi, has admitted they are waiting to see if the team would still play at the 2026 World Cup.

The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, is optimistic of a potential lifeline from FIFA, after it submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Iwobi was asked by SuperSport if he would rather lift the AFCON 2025 trophy or qualify for the World Cup?

The 29-year-old, who played at the 2018 of the World Cup, replied: “I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.

“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have like in your career, a memorable moment.

“But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been. They would like to say ‘I want to go to the World Cup,’ so I can’t be selfish and say win the AFCON and for my teammates to not go to the World Cup. So it’s a tough one. I don’t know. I don’t know.”
