Six days in Andalusian retreat in Marbella, with better weather than in Como. Intense, meticulous, focused work. Cesc Fabregas and his staff took care of everything in detail even without the many national team members. But the retreat was positive, useful to further cement the group in view of the resumption of the championship after the national teams. And for the Azzurri, the restart is Saturday at the Sinigaglia against an Empoli side desperately seeking points for salvation.
Today the team returned to training in Mozzate after the six days in Spain. Now all national team members are expected to return, the last to return to the group are Paz and Perrone, who face Brazil in Buenos Aires with their national team in the Italian night (2026 World Cup qualifying match). Expected in midweek. Although Paz will not be on the field Saturday due to disqualification. Same for Dele Alli and Dossena who has since had knee ligament surgery. Fabregas, who was disqualified after the red in Milan, will also not be on the bench on Saturday.
The special watcher these days is Spanish midfielder – a man of great experience – Sergi Roberto, back in the group after a long absence. And now ready to give his contribution to the team. Cesc is keeping him under control: a return to the field on Saturday is not excluded. The Como coach will take stock of the situation right on the eve: Friday morning in Mozzate.
