The Como head coach was speaking to The Telegraph as his side sit fifth in Serie A, three points behind fourth-placed Juventus with three games remaining and within reach of Champions League qualification in just their second season back in the top flight.
The achievement has intensified speculation over his future, with Chelsea having sacked Liam Rosenior in April and still searching for a permanent appointment.
Fàbregas invoked advice from José Mourinho to explain why he feels no urgency about returning to England.
"The Premier League is the best league in the world. I've always been very, very clear about it. I felt it as a player, I feel it as a coach, as a fan. But Mourinho told me one day when I was at Chelsea: 'I still have 30 years to work.' So I could be here for 10 years, and you can still go to the Premier League in 12, 15 years. Football is so unpredictable, it changes in one second. One day, you are the best. The day after, you are the worst. So let's enjoy the moment. It's beautiful what we are living here."
The structural issue with Chelsea is specific. The club operates a five-person sporting director setup led by Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart, with recruitment decisions made collectively rather than at manager level. Fàbregas has made clear that model is incompatible with how he works.
"I take all the football decisions. The sporting director, he's day-to-day with me and we see football the same way. The signings — we work with data, we have our scouting — but it needs to be something that I believe in. It needs to be a player that I'm convinced about. I'm so happy and lucky that we have a president that trusts me a lot and has given me the confidence to take all the football decisions. That, for me, is really important."
He also explained his fundamental coaching philosophy — one that he described as the thing that keeps him in the profession.
"I coach the way that I feel. I love the game. If I coach only to get results, I will not do it. I don't have the necessity to do it. I played for 20 years — my kids, my wife, they have a great life. I do it because of the passion and because I want to do it my way. If you want to play long ball, second ball, I'm sorry I'm not your guy. I don't feel it and I will not be able to transmit the fire."
He also disclosed that he has kept a tactical notebook since his early playing days — begun at Arsenal around the age of 22 or 23, added to at Barcelona, Chelsea and beyond — and that the chapters on Arsène Wenger and Antonio Conte are the most substantial.
Xabi Alonso, Andoni Iraola and Marco Silva are considered the frontrunners for the Chelsea position. Fàbregas remains focused on Como's final push for European football.
