Il Como non ha mai vinto un trofeo di primo livello con la prima squadra, ma ha conquistato per tre volte la Serie B e in una occasione anche la Serie C.

Nel 1949/1950 il Como arriva sesto in Serie A: da allora non ha mai raggiunto risultati migliori. Dal 1989 ad oggi ha militato nella massima serie solamente nel 2002/2003 (17esimo posto e retrocessione) e nel 2023/2024.

Nella classifica perpetua di Serie A, che racchiude tutti i tornei della massima serie, il Como è al 35esimo posto con quattordici annate al top.

Essendo uno dei posti più 'in' del pianeta, Como attrae diverse personalità di Hollywood, invitate di volta in volta dalla società per assistere alle partite casalinghe del club.

Pietro Vierchowod, Campione del Mondo 1982, ha giocato due partite con l'Italia nel 1981, proprio pochi mesi prima di lasciare il Como per la Fiorentina, squadra in cui militerà al momento della convocazione al Mondiale l'anno seguente.
