Como is no longer standing still: after Dele Alli, the idea of another champion ready to get back into the game is popping up. Here’s why it could be the start of something big

There are those who dream big. And then there is Como, which dreams and works like there is no tomorrow. In a soccer where haste is the rule, the Como people are going against the tide: clear ideas, planning and, above all, no fear of daring.
The watchword is one: build. And it’s not just about saving the category – that’s old stuff. It’s about making a mark, taking Como to another dimension.
They are doing it their way: with patience and twists and turns. The first? Dele Alli. A player who until a few years ago seemed destined to win it all and who today, instead, is trying to find himself right here on the shores of the lake after some really dark years.
He has not yet set foot on the field, he has not made his debut, but he has been training with the team for months. And the idea is that he could become a real asset for next season. Maybe not immediately a star player, but certainly a pawn to be recovered without haste. This is the Como model: taking the time it takes to bring back to the top those who want to start again.
And it is precisely on this philosophy that the latest market idea fits: Paul Pogba. Yes, the “Octopus.” One who has won everything, from the Scudetto to the World Cup, and who today finds himself free after serving his doping disqualification. He has not disappeared from the radar, on the contrary: Pogba is still the center of attention, only now the topic is a different one. What will he do? Where will he go? What is the next step?

There was a lot of talk about his possible return to Ligue 1, to Marseille, where they were really close to closing the deal. Then everything fell through. And the offers from Saudi Arabia are always there, with the usual pharaonic contracts ready to tempt him. But Pogba still hasn’t made up his mind. And among the options is a return to Serie A. Not to Juventus, of course, but to Como.

Why Como? Because there is time here. There is a locker room tailor-made for those who want to become protagonists again without breathing down their necks. There is a strong society that has the economic means and ideas to look far ahead. And then there is Fabregas, someone who knows how to talk to the players.
The plan would be simple: Pogba would start training with the team right away, breathe the right air, and calmly prepare to return to the field next year, alongside budding champions like Nico Paz and Diao-the perfect guide for such talented young players.
He would be the leader of a group aiming high. Not just a media hit, but a team man, capable of bringing up the younger players and guiding his teammates with his experience. After all, we are talking about a World Champion, one who has experienced soccer at the highest level. And who, with the right motivation, could still make a difference.
Salvation, this year, is the minimum goal. But in society they are already looking beyond that. The real dream is called Europe, and to get there real champions are needed. Pogba could be the key to open that door, the first piece of a project that aims to make Como a solid and respected reality even outside the Italian borders.
So one wonders: will we really see Pogba in a Como jersey? Hard to say right now. But if there is one place where “The Octopus” can take back the spotlight, perhaps this is it.
