Martin Baturina

Key strength: Vision and passing

Creative playmaker

Perched in 5th place and riding the momentum of a crucial victory that snapped their winless streak, Como 1907's promotion push hinges on the creative genius of Martin Baturina. The 23-year-old Croatian attacking midfielder has been the heartbeat of their Serie B campaign, delivering 7 goals and 4 assists across 27 appearances—a goal contribution every 121 minutes that underlines his efficiency. Valued at €18 million and already attracting glances from Serie A scouts, Baturina operates as the elegant trequartista from his number 20 role, combining exceptional vision with 67-rated passing to unlock stubborn defenses. Remarkably, he's achieved all this without a single disciplinary blemish—zero cards in over 1,330 minutes of action. Operating in creative tandem with fellow playmaker Nico Paz, the Dinamo Zagreb graduate represents exactly the type of technically gifted, tactically intelligent talent that Como hope will fire them to the top flight. With promotion within reach and Baturina hitting his stride, the stage is set for this Croatian maestro to announce himself on Italian football's biggest stage.
