Como directors give up seats to oldest fans for sold-out Champions League debut | OneFootball

Como will hand directors’ seats to their oldest supporters for Thursday’s sold-out Champions League debut, the club president said on Tuesday.

The Giuseppe-Sinigaglia stadium beside Lake Como usually holds 12,000. In Champions League configuration it is capped at 10,000, so demand has outstripped supply.

Mirwan Suwarso said he and several executives have chosen to give up their places for this match. The seats will be allocated to fans born in 1950 or earlier who have followed Como through every division and era.

The Lombardy side host RB Leipzig in the opening round of the Champions League league phase.

Cesc Fabregas’s team finished fourth in Serie A last season and are fourth again after three matches.
