Como are making significant moves in the transfer market following their season-opening defeat against Juventus. Sky Sport Italia report that the Italian club are pushing to finalize a deal with former Barcelona player Sergi Roberto, who is currently a free agent. Negotiations are ongoing, with Como aiming to secure the 32-year-old on a two-year contract.
Sergi Roberto brings a wealth of experience to the table, having played 14 matches for Barcelona last season, scoring 3 goals and providing 2 assists. He also participated in 5 Champions League matches and 3 Copa del Rey fixtures.
In addition to the potential Sergi Roberto signing, Como has successfully secured the services of Real Madrid talent Nico Paz. The 19-year-old midfielder has agreed to join Como on a permanent deal with a buy-back clause. Paz made 8 appearances for Real Madrid last season, including 3 in the Champions League, 4 in La Liga, and 1 in the Copa del Rey.
Como’s ambitious transfer strategy doesn’t stop there. The club is also eyeing Maximo Perrone, a 20-year-old midfielder currently with Manchester City. This pursuit demonstrates Como’s intent to blend experienced players like Sergi Roberto with promising young talents such as Paz and potentially Perrone.
