Timothy Fosu-Mensah, the former Manchester United and Bayer Leverkusen defender, is currently on trial with Serie A newcomers Como. The club is evaluating his performance as they look to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season under the guidance of Cesc Fabregas. Having recently parted ways with Bayer Leverkusen, Fosu-Mensah is a free agent and is training with Como in hopes of securing a contract.
According to Sky Sport Italia journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, the 25-year-old full-back had a challenging stint at Bayer Leverkusen, where injuries, including an ACL tear and a severe hamstring injury, hampered his ability to make an impact. As a result, he did not make any competitive appearances last season. Now, as he seeks a fresh start, Como is considering him as a potential addition to their defensive lineup, especially since they are in need of a full-back due to Copenhagen’s reluctance to release Diks.
Fosu-Mensah’s trial at Como is part of the club’s broader efforts to bolster their team with experienced players. If he impresses during his trial, he could become a key part of Como’s defense as they prepare for their debut in Serie A. The club has already made several signings, and Fosu-Mensah could be a valuable asset if he proves his fitness and form.
