00:00And next up, it is what we like to call the Comeback Award.

00:04Now, this one is brought to you by Serie A.

00:06The comeback is always greater than the setback, if you like,

00:10and the joy is often indescribable.

00:13It's now time to pay tribute to an entire team

00:16whose rise has, well, truly captured the imagination,

00:20not just of a region, but a nation as a whole,

00:23and are ready to take their place amongst the elite.

00:30We would like to call up upon Luigi de Siervo,

00:33CEO of Serie A, to present the Comeback Award.

00:49And the winner are...

00:51Como!

00:54APPLAUSE

00:56Collecting the award on behalf of Como

00:59is their assistant coach, Cesc Fabregas!

01:11Quick photo, Cesc, for the guys, if that's all right.

01:16And now a few words, if we may.

01:18So many people want to hear the story as well.

01:21Congratulations, an extraordinary season for you and the guys,

01:24back in the big time, back in Serie A after 21 years.

01:30Try and quantify, try and explain to us, if you can,

01:33how much has changed in the last few months,

01:36how much has changed since you joined Como,

01:39and what does it mean, not just for you, not just for the team,

01:42but for the supporters and the region as a whole?

01:44Yeah, I think, first of all, thanks for thinking of us.

01:47We are a very small club that has grown very, very fast.

01:51For just a few words for someone who doesn't know about Como,

01:561907, 21 years ago, we were in Serie A,

01:59then the club has been bankrupt three times.

02:03So, obviously, five years ago, when the new owners bought the club,

02:07the fans didn't really believe that anything special would happen.

02:10So, yeah, from Serie D, four years ago,

02:13non-professional football, to now, to Serie A,

02:17I think it represents this name very well, a great comeback.

02:21And I'm very happy for the fans, for the people of Como,

02:25because they suffered a lot,

02:28and they obviously had difficult moments.

02:32Last year, when I arrived in the team, we didn't have a training ground.

02:35We had to train Mondays somewhere, Tuesdays to another place.

02:39We didn't have restaurants where to eat.

02:42We couldn't sometimes travel in good conditions.

02:45And, yeah, here we go.

02:47The society is very, very hard, very strong,

02:51and we're very happy for the community of Como.

02:54All football fans are happy. One more for you as well,

02:57because I just asked Mikel this question. I'm going to put it to you as well.

03:01A new season, just around the corner, back in Serie A as well.

03:04What is the ambition, maybe not for the next season,

03:07but for the long-term ambition for the team?

03:10Well, I think the ambition is very clear.

03:13We want to go to the top.

03:14I think it's a very ambitious project.

03:17The owners made it very, very clear.

03:19We want to grow.

03:20We're growing a little bit too fast, in my opinion.

03:23But, yeah, the vision is that in four or five years,

03:26Como can be in the elite,

03:29in good company with the very top.

03:32Absolutely love that confidence.

03:34Thank you so much indeed, Cesc Barberas.

03:36Congratulations to you and all the team at Como!
