Como had an Italian on the pitch for 1 minute in Serie A this season | OneFootball

Como are currently in fourth place and would right now be qualified for the Champions League, but an astonishing statistic shows they had an Italian on the pitch for one minute in Serie A.

Cesc Fabregas and the Indonesian club owners have created a strong squad at the Stadio Sinigaglia, just two years after earning promotion from Serie B.

Their 2-1 victory over Roma put them into fourth place, beating the Giallorossi and Juventus in the race for a Champions League spot.

However, Como also have more foreign influence on the field than any other team, as shown by an alarming statistical analysis.

Como gave Italian players just 60 seconds in Serie A

Throughout 29 Serie A matches this season, the Lariani had an Italian on the pitch for precisely one minute of football.

That 60 seconds was for 32-year-old defender Edoardo Goldaniga, who featured as a late substitute in the 2-1 win away to Fiorentina on September 21, 2025.

On the other hand, Cagliari are the team who give the most minutes to Italian players, representing 18,868 minutes in Serie A this season.

Cremonese are next on 16,212 minutes, Fiorentina (14,873 minutes), Pisa (12,895 minutes) and Lazio (12,255).

Bologna follow on 9,347 minutes, then Napoli 9,296 minutes, Inter on 8,711 minutes, Juventus 8,657 minutes, Roma 8,474 minutes.
