According to Fabrizio Romano, Como have made an initial approach over the possibility of signing Liam Delap from Chelsea. The 23-year-old striker is one of the players Chelsea would be willing to sell in the final weeks of this summer’s transfer window.
Delap hasn’t made the desired impact since arriving at Stamford Bridge from Ipswich Town last year, with only three goals and five assists across 47 appearances in all competitions for the London Blues in 2025-26. He clearly has no place in the plans of Xabi Alonso, but Cesc Fabregas, the former Spain teammate of Alonso’s who’s now in charge at Como, sees him as a good option to bolster the attacking ranks for the Serie A side.
Unlike Chelsea, Como have qualified for the Champions League, by finishing fourth in the Italian top flight – ahead of the likes of AC Milan and Juventus.
The relationship between the two clubs is believed to be good, after the completion of the transfer of Trevoh Chalobah from Chelsea to Como several days ago.
