Former Barcelona captain Sergi Roberto is close to completing a move to a new club following his summer exit after 18 years with the Catalan giants.

Roberto is heading to Italy to sign with Serie A side Como who are managed by former Barcelona team-mate Cesc Fabregas. The 32-year-old moves on a free transfer after his Barcelona contract expired in June.

Como are back in Serie A this season for the first time in over 20 years after promotion last year but suffered a 3-0 defeat to Juventus in their opening game of the new campaign.
