Former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas
will become a free agent when his Monaco contract expires at the end of the
month.
Fabregas, 35, made 68 appearances for the Ligue 1
side after moving to the principality from Chelsea in January 2019.
He only made five appearances for Monaco last season
as his campaign was impacted by injury and fitness problems.
The former Spain international has previously said
he is not ready to hang up his boots this summer, meaning he will be on the
lookout for his fifth club following his spells at Arsenal, Barcelona, Chelsea
and Monaco.
“The midfielder with more than 830 career games, whose contract is coming to an end, leaves the Principality club three and a half years after his arrival,” confirmed Monaco.
Fabregas, who was capped 110 times by Spain between
2006 and 2016, will arrive at his new club having won trophies in England and
Spain but not France.
He has won the Premier League twice, the FA Cup
twice and a La Liga title as well as the World Cup and two European
Championships.
Fellow midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni also left Monaco this month by sealing a
€100 million move to Real Madrid.
