Overview
- Como finished the 2025–26 Serie A campaign in fourth place to secure the club’s first-ever qualification for the 2026/27 UEFA Champions League.
- Cesc Fàbregas, Como’s head coach, has led a youth‑focused approach that helped the team record 65 goals and concede just 29, giving them the league’s best defensive record.
- Owners Robert and Michael Hartono have backed a patient investment model since 2019 that rebuilt the club from Serie D to Europe without heavy, short-term spending.
- UEFA approved upgrades to Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia so Como can host Champions League matches, but the renovated venue holds roughly 11,000 fans and limits matchday revenue.
- The club is foregrounding local supporters—president Mirwan Suwarso and directors have relinquished premium seats for long-standing fans—and must now balance community promises with the commercial and logistical demands of European competition.
