Sergi Roberto Joins Serie A Club Como

Sergi Roberto, the former Barcelona captain, is set to join Serie A club Como on a free transfer after leaving Barcelona following 18 years with the club. The move, influenced by Como's manager Cesc Fabregas, is nearly finalized with only minor documentation remaining. Roberto had options from other clubs, including Ajax and Fiorentina, but chose Como to reunite with Fabregas and contribute to the team's ambitious goals following their promotion to Serie A. Como aims to make a significant impact in the league, and Roberto's experience from his 373 appearances at Barcelona will be crucial. The club is also attracting other high-profile players this summer, including Rafael Varane and Andrea Belotti. An official announcement regarding Roberto's transfer is anticipated soon, with Como looking to bounce back after a heavy defeat in their opening match.
