Como Captain Lucas Da Cunha: "Easier to Reach Champions League Than National Team"
Lucas Da Cunha, the dynamic midfielder and captain of Serie B side Como, recently shared his candid thoughts in a compelling interview, reflecting on his career aspirations and the club's ambitions. Da Cunha made a striking statement comparing the challenge of earning a national team call-up to that of reaching the prestigious Champions League with his club.
In his own words, Da Cunha boldly remarked, "National team? It's easier to reach the Champions League." This declaration highlights his current focus and perhaps the perceived difficulty of breaking into international squads, especially given Como's current trajectory and his deep commitment to the club.
He further elaborated on his tenure with Como, noting the significant progress made since his arrival: "I arrived three years ago, and at that time, we were still in Serie B." This statement underscores his long-term dedication and the remarkable ascent of the club during his captaincy, hinting at their ongoing pursuit of top-flight football and European dreams.
