Senegalese forward Assane Diao continues to impress at Como, scoring his fourth goal of the season since joining the Italian club last month.
The 19-year-old, who arrived from Real Betis during the winter transfer window, has quickly adapted to life under head coach Cesc Fàbregas.
On Sunday, he found the net once again, opening the scoring in Como’s Serie A clash against Fiorentina.
His latest strike brings his tally to four goals in just seven league appearances.
Diao has shown a knack for delivering on big occasions, having previously scored against some of the biggest clubs in European football.
Before his move to Como, he made headlines with goals for Real Betis against Barcelona.

Since arriving in Italy, he has continued that trend, finding the net against Milan, Juventus, and now Fiorentina.
While currently representing Spain at youth level, Diao, who was born in Senegal, remains eligible to switch international allegiance to the Lions of Teranga.
His performances in Italy are likely to attract attention from both national teams as he continues his rapid rise.
