Capello excited to watch Como’s Champions League debut

Fabio Capello is eagerly anticipating Como’s first appearance in the Champions League, with the club coached by Cesc Fabregas set to begin its campaign against German side RB Leipzig on Thursday.

The former manager of the Russia national team and Milan said: “It will be very interesting to watch Como in the Champions League.”

Como are preparing for their debut in Europe’s most prestigious club competition, and Thursday’s opening-round fixture will mark the club’s first match in the tournament. Their opponents will be RB Leipzig, who will travel into the contest as the German representatives facing Fabregas’ side.

Capello, who previously managed both Milan and the Russia national team, is looking forward to seeing how Como perform at this level. The match will provide the first opportunity to watch the Italian club compete in the Champions League, while also offering a significant occasion for Fabregas as the coach of the team.

The fixture is therefore the immediate focus for Como as they prepare to enter the competition. Capello’s comments underline the interest surrounding the club’s arrival in the tournament and his desire to see their first performance on the European stage.

For Como, the meeting with RB Leipzig will be the starting point of their Champions League campaign. For Fabregas’ team, the match represents the beginning of their involvement in the competition; for Capello, it is an occasion he is particularly keen to follow.

The match will take place on Thursday, when Como will play their first game in the Champions League against RB Leipzig.
