Como play Barcelona in the Joan Gamper Trophy tonight and it is the opportunity for the clubs to discuss Inaki Pena’s possible move to Serie A.

As Football Italia had exclusively reported over the last few days, Como are interested in the goalkeeper, whose contract is running down at Camp Nou and who wants to leave for a new adventure.

He has at least another couple of proposals to sift through as well, but is entirely open to the idea of joining the ambitious Italian club.

Como approach Inaki Pena

Cesc Fabregas will be the focus of attention this evening in the traditional pre-season tournament, as he is back against his first love, the Blaugrana, but behind the scenes his directors are working on negotiations for Inaki Pena.

After a few too many controversial headlines and missteps, Barcelona resolved the Marc-Andre ter Stegen issue and can therefore release Pena for his next experience.

The 26-year-old was a product of the Barcelona youth academy and his only other club was Galatasaray in a six-month spell in 2022.

Despite all that, he only made 45 competitive appearances for the senior team.
