Cesc Fabregas reveals his top two managers

Fabregas admits he’s been lucky to work with the world’s best managers

Cesc Fabregas has named Wenger and Jose Mourinho as the best two managers he has worked under during his career.

That success has had a lot to do with the great managers he’s worked with and the midfielder admits he’s been blessed in that area, while singling out his two favourites. 




“I had the best in the world, so I cannot complain,” Fabregas said on Instagram Live. 

But when pressed to provide the top two, the Spaniard added: “Wenger and Mourinho.”




That selection meant former Barcelona and current Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola missed out, along with Vicente del Bosque, who led Spain to World Cup win in 2010 and a Euro triumph.

Having won six trophies under Guardiola at Barca, Fabregas’ omisison of him stands out, with the former Chelsea player struggling to perform at his best while in Spain. 

“I love him. I owe him a lot because he brought me here and I will always remember that,” Fabregas said of Mourinho in 2018. 

“Arsene always treated me like a son and it was amazing but the closest anyone else has been to him was Jose.



“The way he treated me, the way he made me feel, how he let me be a leader of the Chelsea team from day one and believed in me, this was fantastic and will always stay with me. 

“It [this experience at Chelsea] is thanks to him. Our history, what had happened between us before I came, made it even more remarkable. 

“When I played for Arsenal, he was with Chelsea. When I was at Barcelona, he was with Real Madrid. We were confronting each other but then we humbled ourselves and started a good relationship.”
