RC Kouba Overview

Liverpool head coach Andoni Iraola took plenty of positive lessons from his side's 2-0 friendly victory over Como 1907 at Anfield. First-half goals from Cody Gakpo and debutant Jeremy Jacquet ensured the Reds finished their pre-season schedule on a high ahead of the Premier League opener.

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.
