Como 1907 will be proudly represented by Cristiano De Paoli, who will defend the colors of the Lariani and the Italian national team at the Under-19 European Championship. The defender, born in 2008, is fresh off winning the Primavera 2 championship with the BiancoBlu and earned several call-ups to the first team during the season. He will be among the 20 "Azzurrini" selected by head coach Alberto Bollini to compete in the Under-19 European Championship to be held in Wales.
De Paoli and his teammates will make their debut on Monday, June 29, at 5:00 p.m., facing Serbia at "The Oval" in Caernarfon; the same stadium will also host the second match, Croatia vs. Italy, which will take place on Thursday, July 2, at 3:00 p.m. The "Azzurrini" will then wrap up their group stage campaign against Ukraine on Sunday, July 5, at 5:00 p.m. at the "Bangor City Stadium" in Bangor.
The BiancoBlu family will proudly follow Cristiano's progress, wishing him the very best for this experience with the Italian Under-19 national team.
