The story of Mirwan Suwarso, who willingly gave up his Champions League seat for a Como 1907 supporter.

indotravelsport.com - The name Mirwan Suwarso has become a central talking point ahead of Como 1907's Historic debut in the UEFA Champions League. The Indonesian businessman serving as President of Como 1907 showed extraordinary consideration for the club's supporters by giving up his reserved match seat for the fixture.

Como 1907 will make the first Champions League appearance in the club's entire history when they face RB Leipzig on Friday 11 September 2026, 02:00 WIB.

For this Italian side, this match marks the start of an entirely new era after the club successfully qualified for Europe's elite football competition.

Mirwan's decision proves that despite his senior executive position at the club, he has not forgotten the fans that have stood by Como 1907 through every stage of the club's journey.

News of this decision was broken by leading international football journalist Fabrizio Romano via his official X account.

"Como President Mirwan Suwarso, alongside the full club board of directors, have chosen to hand over their official match seats to supporters for this Champions League debut fixture against Leipzig," Fabrizio Romano stated in English on Tuesday 8 September 2026.

Mirwan Selected Senior Long-Standing Supporters

Mirwan Suwarso did not simply open these reserved seats up to any random spectator. He specifically requested the seats be allocated to dedicated Como followers who have supported the club for decades.

Fabrizio Romano confirmed Mirwan had publicly announced to Como 1907 supporters that all club executives' reserved match seats would be made available for fans.

"Suwarso announced these seats will be awarded to Como supporters who were born in 1950 or earlier," he added.

This choice gives Como's Champions League debut a deeply meaningful extra dimension. Against the glitz and spectacle of top-tier European football, Mirwan chose to reserve this historic moment for the generation of fans that have walked the entire long, hard journey with the club.

"These seats are being given to loyal supporters who have followed Como through every era of the club's history, so they can be present to witness this historic first ever Champions League match for their club," Romano noted.

For these fans, getting to attend Como's Champions League match is far more than just watching a football game. They will watch the club they have supported through every up and down finally step out onto the biggest stage in European club football.

Indonesian Presence At Como 1907

Mirwan Suwarso's leadership during Como 1907's run to the Champions League has drawn massive public attention across Indonesia. The Indonesian national holds a key executive position at the Italian club as they prepare for one of the most important matches in their entire history.

Como 1907 secured their Champions League qualification after finishing 4th in Italy's Serie A for the 2025/2026 Season. This spot was confirmed when Como closed the domestic campaign with a convincing 4-0 victory over Cremonese.

RB Leipzig will be Como's very first opponent in Champions League competition. This fixture will also act as the first proper test for the Italian club at the absolute highest level of European club football.
