The 35 year old who has travelled far and wide in his illustrious career surprisingly chose the Serie B side over other options.
He’s played for top clubs such as Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea with his choice to move to the second tier of Italian football baffling to many.
He has however revealed the reason behind his decision as he spoke to Spanish publication Marca over his new home.
“I was convinced by the global project they proposed; to continue playing at a good level, to be a shareholder, to live in a nice city.
“My family will be relaxed, the children can go to a Swiss school, I can prepare for a future as a coach.”
Fabregas made 110 appearances for the Spanish national team winning the World Cup once and the European Championships twice.
