Como 1907, a club owned by conglomerates of Indonesian Hartono brothers, officially hooked up former Manchester United defender Raphael Varane.
The 31-year-old was obtained free of charge because he was agent-free after his contract at Old Trafford expires in June 2024.
Varane will be with the club, which has just been promoted to Serie A for the next two seasons. He will meet Cesc Fabregas again who is now heading Como 1907.
"I'm going to meet Cesc again, but this time it's not as an opponent."
"I am very happy. I really like the philosophy of playing and his passion for football," Varane said at BBC Sport.
