Como Go Full Career Mode with Former Manchester United Stars Set to Join
The Italian side is looking to make a statement in their first season back in Serie A, and it’s shaping up to be an incredible campaign. After a 21-year absence from the top tier, Como are wasting no time in building a competitive squad. With the likes of Cesc Fabregas, Osian Roberts, and Pepe Reina already on board, the team has now set its sights on two former Manchester United stars.
The Current Squad
Como have made some impressive signings already, including goalkeeper Pau Lopez and striker Andrea Belotti. The 20-year-old Lopez joins from French club Marseille, while Belotti arrives from Roma for an initial reported fee of €4m. The pair will add some much-needed experience to the team, which is a good starting point for their Serie A campaign.
The Manchester United Connection
According to reports, Como have put offers to recently released United duo Raphael Varane and Anthony Martial. Both players are free agents this summer after departing Old Trafford at the expiry of their contracts. Varane joined United in 2021 from Real Madrid, scoring two goals in 95 games across three seasons and winning both the FA Cup and League Cup. Martial, on the other hand, joined United from Monaco in 2015 and went on to score 90 goals in 317 games.
What It Means for Como
If Como can secure the signings of both Varane and Martial, it would give them a huge amount of experience ahead of taking on the challenge of Serie A for the first time in more than two decades. The duo would bring a winning mentality to the team, which is essential for success in the top tier.
What’s Next?
Keep an eye out for further updates on Como’s transfer activity. Will they be able to secure the signings of Varane and Martial? Only time will tell. In the meantime, follow us on all social media platforms for more updates on the world of football.
