“Como 1907 is pleased to announce the preliminary signing of 25-year-old defender, Alberto Dossena, from Cagliari on a 4 year contract,” the club wrote in a brief statement on social media.

“Born in Brescia, Dossena began his career at Atalanta Bergamasca. Before signing with Cagliari in August 2022, the centre-back made 56 league appearances for Avellino, scoring three goals.

“Last season with Cagliari, he made 35 appearances in the newly promoted club’s successful campaign to stay in Serie A with two goals and four assists.”

The 2023-24 Serie B runners up have already been busy in the transfer market, having recently announced the permanent acquisition of Andrea Belotti from Roma for a total fee of up to €5m.

Como have also held in-person talks with Real Madrid legend and former Manchester United centre-back Raphael Varane, who arrived for talks in Italy on Saturday. The club had also previously expressed an interest in signing out-of-contract former Dortmund defender Mats Hummels.
