Como head coach Cesc Fabregas is looking to further exploit his connections at Stamford Bridge by launching a move for another Chelsea star. Having already secured the signing of Trevoh Chalobah from his former club, the Spanish icon has now set his sights on out-of-favour forward Liam Delap.

Liverpool's pre-season preparations took a gruesome turn on Sunday when their behind-closed-doors friendly match against Italian side Como was marred by a horrific injury. Alberto Dossena suffered a severe dislocated finger during the goalless draw, prompting the club's official broadcast channel, LFCTV, to issue an immediate on-air apology to their viewers.

Como have reportedly turned their attention to Chelsea striker Liam Delap after negotiations for Moise Kean hit a roadblock. The ambitious Italian club are actively searching for attacking reinforcements to strengthen their squad ahead of the new campaign.

Former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas has praised the Gunners' hierarchy for showing patience with Mikel Arteta during his toughest moments at the helm. Returning to the Emirates Stadium with his Como side for a pre-season friendly, the Spaniard revealed that the Italian club are actively trying to replicate Arsenal's culture and long-term stability.
