Sergi Roberto Joins Como As Free Agent from Barcelona

Former Barcelona captain Sergi Roberto is on the verge of joining a new club after departing from the Catalan giants this summer, ending an 18-year tenure. Sergi Roberto is set to sign with Serie A team Como, where he’ll reunite with former Barcelona teammate Cesc Fabregas, who manages the club. The 32-year-old is making the move on a free transfer after his contract with Barcelona expired in June.

Como, who recently earned promotion to Serie A for the first time in over two decades, started the season with a 3-0 loss to Juventus. Roberto received offers from other clubs like Ajax and Fiorentina but chose to team up with Fabregas at Como. Sergi Roberto is not the only high-profile player to join Como this summer after their promotion to Italy’s top division. Former Manchester United defender Rafael Varane, as well as Pepe Reina, Andrea Belotti, and Andrea Dossena, have also made the move to the club.

Sergi Roberto To Como

Sergi Roberto’s transfer to Como marks a major milestone in his career. After spending 18 years at Barcelona, where he made 373 appearances and captained the team last season, Roberto has chosen to start a new chapter. His decision to join Como, a club recently promoted to Serie A after 23 years, was largely influenced by the chance to reunite with his former teammate Cesc Fabregas.

Despite interest from clubs like Ajax and Fiorentina, the allure of playing alongside Fabregas again was too strong to resist. Roberto has signed a two-year contract with Como, with an option for a third season, marking his first departure from the Catalan giants, Barcelona.

Cesc Fabregas is more than just a player at Como; his impact reaches far beyond the field. The former Arsenal, Chelsea, and Barcelona midfielder has been instrumental in attracting top talent to the club. With over 700 club appearances and 110 caps for Spain, Fabregas brings immense experience and a vast network within the football world.

Fabregas’ presence at Como is a major draw for players like Sergi Roberto. His career has seen him make high-profile moves, such as from Arsenal to Barcelona for 34 million euros and from Barcelona to Chelsea for 33 million euros. Now at Como, Fabregas uses his experience to help the club assemble a competitive squad.

Como’s approach to building a competitive Serie A squad also involves bringing in promising young talents like Nico Páz from Real Madrid and Máximo Perrone from Manchester City. Como’s strategy of combining promising young talents with seasoned veterans highlights their ambition. The club aims to build a strong and competitive squad that can make an impact in Serie A.
