Lake Como is gearing up for a new addition to bolster their squad as they prepare for the return to Serie A, with the team entrenched in a battle for survival.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the club is on the brink of securing the services of Assane Diao, a forward from Real Betis.
The pivotal role in this transfer is being played by none other than Cesc Fabregas, who is reportedly instrumental in persuading the talented attacker to make the move.
Romano noted, “The presence and influence of Fabregas have been crucial in these negotiations,” underscoring the significance of the former Spanish international’s involvement.
It is understood that Como sees Diao as a substantial reinforcement who can contribute significantly to their attacking options.
The negotiations seem to be at an advanced stage, and the Lake Como fans will be eagerly waiting to see if the potential deal materialises.
With the Serie A campaign looming, the successful acquisition of Diao could prove to be a vital step for Como in their quest to maintain their top-flight status.
