Como has qualified for the first time in its history for a European competition, directly in the Champions League. This means that, starting from the 2026-27 season, they will come under Uefa's radar for financial sustainability regulations.

What happened?

The record signing of Nico Paz (60 million from Real Madrid) was approved by the Hartono family and implemented by president Suwarso. Como has spent a lot to strengthen the team and increase competitiveness.

Why is it important for Como?

The Italian club will have to pay attention to cost control, with predictable restrictions in compiling the Uefa list. Uefa looks favorably on projects based on rational investments and supported by ownership.

What comes next?

Como will agree on a recovery plan with Uefa by signing a settlement agreement lasting three or four years. The Italian club will have to reduce expenses and increase revenue to respect the financial fair play regulations.
