The veteran goalkeeper underlined the forward’s maturity, noting that he has grown into a complete player capable of influencing games in multiple ways.

Frequently asked questions

Il 25 maggio 1907 nasce il Como Football Club. La società viene formata al Bar Taroni di Via Cinque Giornate, la prima sede del club. La squadra si affilierà alla FIGC nel 1911 dopo anni di sole amichevoli.

L'indonesiano Robert Budi Hartono è il presidente del Como, con il fratello Michael Bambang come co-presidente. La società proprietaria del club è la PT Djarum, azienda indonesiana produttrice di sigarette kretek aromatizzate con chiodi di garofano: questo fa del club lombardo il più ricco della Serie A.

Il Como gioca le partite casalinghe allo Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia. L'impianto è dedicato all'omonimo campione di canottaggio morto durante la Prima Guerra Mondiale: in carriera aveva vinto due medaglie d'oro agli Europei.

Il Sinigaglia, stadio del Como, può ospitare 10.584 spettatori. L'impianto, inaugurato nel 1927, ha avuto tre ristrutturazioni nel corso della storia, ovvero nel 1990, nel periodo 2002-2004 e nel 2024.

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.

Antonio Cetti è il giocatore che ha segnato più reti con la maglia del Como. Nel club lariano tra il 1920 e il 1941, ha siglato 91 goal in 278 partite ufficiali con il club.

Bruno Ballarini, giocatore del Como dal 1958 al 1970, detiene il record di partite giocate con il club. 350 le gare disputate con la squadra lombarda nel corso della storia.

Quando si parla di Lariani ci si riferisce a Como e al suo noto Lago, noto come Lario nell'antichità. Questa parola deriva dal latino Larius, il nome dato dai romani all'attuale simbolo della città.

Dopo essere stato a lungo azzurro-bianco, nel terzo millennio il Como è diventato biancoblu. Entrambi i colori derivano dal colore del Lago cittadino, simbolo del territorio.

Ilario, la mascotte del Como dal 2017 è un uccello e in particolare uno svasso azzurro. La scelta dell'animale è stata effettuata dai tifosi a margine di una partita di campionato.

Il Como attende ancora la prima partecipazione in Europa. L'arrivo degli Hartono in città è alla base di un futuro nei massimi tornei continentali.

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.
