Hollywood Celebrities and Former EPL Star Dele Alli Watch Como vs Roma
The Serie A match between Como and Roma attracted some high-profile spectators, including Hollywood A-listers and a potential new signing for the home team. Actors Keira Knightley, Michael Fassbender, and Adrian Brody were spotted in the stands at Stadio Sinigaglia, continuing the trend of celebrity appearances at Como games since their promotion to Italy’s top flight.
The star-studded audience is partly due to the club owners’ connections in the entertainment industry, as well as Como’s popularity as a scenic getaway for actors. However, the most intriguing guest from a football perspective was former Tottenham and England midfielder Dele Alli.
Alli, currently a free agent after leaving Everton, was present at the invitation of Como. The 28-year-old playmaker boasts significant Premier League experience and has been linked with a move to the Italian club. Working under Como’s coach Cesc Fabregas could potentially revitalize Alli’s career.
With 194 Premier League appearances to his name, Alli’s presence at the match has fueled speculation about his future. Previously, he was also connected with another Serie A side, Genoa. As Como aims to establish itself in Serie A, signing a player of Alli’s caliber could be a significant coup for the ambitious club.
The combination of Hollywood glamour and football intrigue made the Como-Roma fixture a particularly noteworthy event in Serie A’s 16th round of matches.
