Reports from France have indicated that Serie A newcomers Como have expressed interest in signing German international defender Mats Hummels. The 35-year-old, who was not included in Germany’s squad for Euro 2024, is currently a free agent after opting not to extend his contract with Borussia Dortmund. According to Alfredo Pedulla, Como has emerged as a strong contender in the race to secure Hummels’ signature.
Como has already bolstered their squad with signings such as former Torino and Roma striker Andrea Belotti and Cagliari defender Alberto Dossena. Now, they are looking to add Hummels’ wealth of experience to their team. Despite being linked with a move to Roma earlier in the summer, Hummels’ agent has maintained secrecy regarding his client’s future club.
Hummels was recently seen vacationing on the island of Mallorca, sparking rumors of a potential move to La Liga. However, he clarified that he was only there with his family and not for transfer discussions. Como’s interest in the veteran defender suggests that they are ambitious in strengthening their squad for the upcoming season. It remains to be seen where Hummels will ultimately decide to continue his career.
