Como Set to Choose Between Maximo Perrone and Valentin Rongier for Midfield Reinforcement
Como is finalizing their summer transfers. They are in talks with Manchester City and Olympique Marseille. The club wants to sign either Maximo Perrone or Valentin Rongier, but not both.
WHAT IS HAPPENING?
Como has started talks with Manchester City and Olympique Marseille to strengthen their midfield for the Serie A season. They are choosing between Maximo Perrone, who was on loan from Manchester City last season, and Valentin Rongier from Marseille. The decision will depend on costs, terms, and how well each player fits with the team. Como can only sign one of these players.
As reported, no agreement has been reached for Maximo Perrone’s permanent transfer to Como from Manchester City.
According to a previous report, Como FC consider Valentin Rongier to be worth around €12 million.
THE CONTEXT: COMO’S SEASON AND THE PLAYERS INVOLVED
Last season, Como finished 10th in Serie A under manager Cesc Fabregas, a good result for their return to Serie A.
Perrone was crucial during his loan and wants to stay. Como and Manchester City are open to another loan or a permanent move. City may demand buy-back or sell-on options for Perrone’s permanent move. Rongier brings leadership and experience from Ligue 1, making him an interesting option as well.
NEXT STEPS FOR COMO AND WHAT TO EXPECT
Cesc Fabregas and the management are assessing which midfielder could fit better into the team and their style of play. Fans are waiting anxiously for an announcement as the club tries to make the best choice for its future and the rest of the season. Como FC are pushing for European qualification in Serie A this year, which adds urgency to their decision-making.
According to a previous report, Como FC are considering Davinson Sánchez and Carl Starfelt to improve their squad quality for the upcoming season.
