Como President eyes ‘more Italians’ and stadium upgrade for Europe
Como President eyes ‘more Italians’ and stadium upgrade for Europe President Mirwan Suwarso says that the club aim to sign more Italian players and will soon begin renovations to make Stadio Sinigaglia eligible for European matches. Como have made history by qualifying for Europe for the first time ever and can still aim for a Champions League spot, as they are just two points behind Roma and Milan in fourth. Their home ground, the Stadio Sinigaglia, currently does not comply with UEFA regulations for European matches, but the Azzurri aim to develop the stadium in time for next season.
“We hope so. We expect to complete the refurbishment works at the end of the summer. The works can begin immediately after Sunday’s game against Parma,” Suwarso told Gazzetta.
Como need just one point in the last two games of the season to earn Europa League qualification, but can still fight for a Champions League spot as well. “Jokes aside, we want to finish as high as possible, but we’ll take what life gives us,” said the Como President. “The Champions League is not important, as our target is to do better than the year before.
” Qualification for Europe means Como will need to make new signings to prepare for three competitions next season. “There will be some operations, but we don’t have to start from scratch,” Suwarso said.
