Italian club Como announced its rejection of an official offer from French club Marseille to sign its player Lucas Da Cunha, as the player is considered a key element in the team's plans for this season.

According to reports, Da Cunha is considered a key player for coach Cesc Fabregas, who relies heavily on him in the midfield, which led the management to refuse to let him go in any way during the current transfer window.

Como's rejection comes at a time when the player himself has shown commitment to the team, affirming his desire to continue with the Italian club and participate in upcoming local competitions.

The Como management is expected to continue strengthening the team's lineup while maintaining its core pillars, to ensure competitiveness for survival and achieve positive results in the Italian league this season.
