This evening Como will play for the chance to gain direct promotion to Serie A within their friendly walls. The team of Osian Roberts and Cesc Fabregas will in fact challenge at Senigaglia a Cosenza team that no longer has any objectives in search of a victory that would allow them to maintain the second place regardless of the result of Venezia in La Spezia.
For the occasion, there will be a special guest in the stands, the former world champion Thierry Henry who since the summer of 2022 has been a shareholder of the Lariani with 1% of the shares and was responsible for the arrival of the Welshman Roberts on the bench: “It is no secret that Thierry Henry is one of the parties interested in Como. My name comes from Thierry’s recommendation to the club. – said Roberts at the beginning of his adventure in Como – Thierry came to our courses and afterwards we maintained our friendship and are constantly in contact. When Como needed someone to fill this role I appreciated the fact that they thought of me, this means a lot. It gives me a great sense of pride and I can’t wait to take on the role itself.”
The presence of the Frenchman, current coach of the Transalpine U21, is not an absolute novelty, but an important sign of closeness to the club, the team and his former teammate Fabregas in what could be a historic night.
