Former Manchester United and Leverkusen wing-back Fosu Mensah is currently on trial with Serie B side Como, according to the latest news from transfer expert Di Marzio. The 26-year-old is a free agent following the termination of his contract with Leverkusen and is currently actively looking for new professional opportunities.
Fosu-Mensah has had quite a varied career, playing for Manchester United, Crystal Palace and Fulham in the Premier League, as well as Leverkusen in the Bundesliga. As a wing-back, he impressed on the field with his excellent pace and defensive abilities. Despite playing for a number of clubs, Fosu-Mensah has not been able to consistently occupy a starting position, which has forced him to face a new challenge in his career.
Como are currently in dire need of a wing-back to bolster their squad, due to their failure to successfully bring in Dix from Copenhagen. Therefore, Fosu Mensah's trial is especially important for Como. If he can show his strength in the trial and win the club's recognition, the 98-year-old young player is expected to officially join Como and start a new chapter in his career.
Although Fosu Mensah is only worth €800,000 on the transfer market, that doesn't mean he's limited. In soccer, the price tag is often influenced by a number of factors, including a player's age, contract status, and supply and demand in the transfer market. Therefore, for the Como team, it is undoubtedly a good deal to be able to bring in a strong player at a relatively low cost.
