Cesc Fàbregas’s Como is about to make history. After Parma, who already celebrated their promotion, the ‘lariani’ can seal this Sunday their second place and direct promotion to Serie A, to which they would return after a wait of 21 years. If the team coached by Roberts wins at Modena’s home, the goal would be assured, but it is also possible to achieve it with other results. Thanks to the four-point advantage with two days remaining, a draw or even a defeat could be enough if, respectively, Venice, who is third, does not win or loses against Feralpisaló.
The club would take a huge leap to reinforce its ambitious project, led by Indonesians Robert Budi and Michael Hartono. Since his arrival in 2019, the year in which the club was active in Serie D, the stated objective was to return to the highest level of Calcio to stay. And it’s one step away.

Fábregas closed his career as a footballer at Como and began his career as a coach, taking charge of the Primavera team before and, in November 2023replacing Moreno Longo, the first team (he trained in five days, with three wins, one draw and one loss), thanks to a derogation that expired on December 20, when the Welshman Osian Roberts arrived.
The former Barça player is also a minority member of the club, whose projects are aiming high. Its owners are working to build a new stadium and there is already talk of million-dollar investments in the market. In the next few hours the first step for your new era may arrive.
