Inaki Pena could soon be heading to Italy, with Como making a firm approach for the Barcelona goalkeeper this summer – www.isagoal.com reports.
Journalist Alfredo Pedulla reveals that after weighing other options, including Kevin Trapp, Como have now prioritized Pena as their top goalkeeping target.
The 26-year-old wants more game time and has already asked for a transfer, with his current deal at Barça running until 2026.
Barcelona’s renewal of Szczesny and plan to register Joan Garcia have opened the door for Pena’s exit.
Sporting director Deco has already spoken to Pena’s camp, confirming the club won’t stand in his way once Garcia’s paperwork clears.
Former Barça star Cesc Fabregas, now coaching Como, is pushing for the move, which could tip the scales.
Clubs from Spain and Turkey are also monitoring the situation, but Como’s involvement has quickly shifted the dynamics.
