Ex-Chelsea Midfielder Sets Champions League Target

AS Monaco midfielder Cesc Fabregas has set the target of qualifying for Champions League football for his team ahead of next season.

Fabregas and AS Monaco have had to battle with relegation this season but the Spanish international believes that a top-three finish is possible next season.

The 31-year-old wants Champions League football for French Ligue 1 giants AS Monaco for the 2020/21 season via a top-three finish next season.

Cesc Fabregas joined AS Monaco from West London giants Chelsea during the January transfer window after spending almost five years at Stamford Bridge.

The former Arsenal and Barcelona player had six months left on his then Chelsea contract before signing for AS Monaco in the first month of the year.

Cesc Fabregas talked about the need for Champions League football in his recent interview as monitored by popular media portal Goal.

He also said that the French Ligue 1 title is almost impossible due to the dominance of capital club Paris Saint Germain (PSG).

Fabregas has made 10 appearances for AS Monaco since his move to the club during the winter transfer window and the principality club has picked up points from eight of those games.

AS Monaco have moved seven points clear of the relegation zone as a result of those points ahead of the home meeting with Reims at the weekend.
