Arsenal icons Thierry Henry and Cesc Fabregas reunite with ambitious Como investment

Thierry Henry has linked back up with his former Arsenal teammate Cesc Fabregas after becoming the latest investor in Italian Serie B outfit Como.

The duo previously played together in north London between 2003 to 2007, when Henry left the club to join Barcelona, where Fabregas came through the youth system before rejoining in 2011. And they will now be adding Como to their list of shared allegiances, with Fabregas signing for the club as well as becoming an investor this summer.

Henry has claimed that Como's commitment to the local community attracted him to the team. There are plans for all of the club's suppliers to be local firms within the next couple of years, and major investment is promised to upgrade facilities.
