Como 1907, the newly promoted Serie A side, has been dealt a significant setback with the news that French defender Rafael Varane will be sidelined due to a persistent injury.
The 31-year-old, who signed a two-year contract with the club in the summer, suffered the injury during the team's first league game and was initially expected to make a swift recovery. However, the issue has proven to be more complex and severe than initially believed.
Varane's absence is a significant blow to Como, who are already struggling to find their footing in Serie A. The team, managed by Cesc Fabregas, currently sits in 18th position with just one point from two matches. Varane's experience and winning mentality, honed during his time at Real Madrid and with the French national team, would have been invaluable in helping the team navigate this challenging period.
Como's results so far this season have been underwhelming, with a single draw and a defeat leaving them with a meager one point from a possible six. The team's struggles in front of goal, having scored just once in two matches, have been compounded by a leaky defense that has conceded four goals.
Varane's injury, the exact nature and extent of which have not been disclosed, will require additional time to recover and rehabilitate. His removal from the squad list highlights the significance of the injury and the impact it will have on the team's performance.
In Varane's absence, Como will need to adapt and find alternative solutions to compensate for the loss of their experienced defender. The team will be hoping for a swift recovery for the Frenchman, but in the meantime, they must find a way to arrest their slide and start picking up points in Serie A.
