Cesc Fabregas claims that Como sensation Nico Paz is getting Lionel Messi-esque treatment from Serie A rivals. World Cup winner Fabregas once played alongside Messi at Barcelona, with opponents eager to keep the ball away from him as much as possible. Paz is, much like his Argentina international team-mate, considered to be another match-altering talent.

Cesc Fabregas has been described as "very professional and passionate" by his former Como head coach and ex-Spanish national team-mate Pepe Reina. The former Liverpool custodian spent the 2024-25 season at Como, under the orders of Fabregas. The 38-year-old has become one of the best young managers in the world, helping then newly-promoted Como finish 10th in the Serie A table last season.

Dele Alli’s downfall remains “difficult” to understand, with Roberto Di Matteo - who saw the ex-England international taking his first steps towards senior stardom - urging the former Tottenham midfielder to “enjoy life”. Dele finds himself at another important career crossroads after seeing his contract surprisingly terminated by Serie A side Como.

Dele Alli has been told why it will be “tough” for him to land a working relationship with NFL legend Tom Brady at Birmingham City. Ex-England international Dele finds himself in the free agent pool again after being released by Como. A return to his homeland has been speculated on, with ambitious teams in the Championship among those said to be keen.

Como sensation Nico Paz admits to watching Lionel Messi videos on YouTube as he attempts to “replicate” what the Inter Miami superstar is capable of. Paz is now an Argentina international team-mate of the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner, but continues to use his illustrious fellow countryman as a source of inspiration when it comes to enhancing his own game.

Alvaro Morata has slammed the match officials for the Como vs Genoa game for not having a look at VAR before sending off former Real Madrid defender Jacobo Ramon. The marching orders for the Spaniard played a crucial role in the outcome of the fixture, as Como shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw against Patrick Vieira's team on Monday.

Como head coach Cesc Fabregas urged patience after his side were held to a late 1-1 draw against Genoa, stressing that his squad are still young and developing. Despite Alvaro Morata and Sergi Roberto being the only experienced winners, the Spaniard believes the project is on the right path as Como look to continue their climb up Serie A.
