After weeks on the sidelines, Rensch is back in Gasperini’s plans.

The winger, dropped from the rotation after the derby and perhaps also penalized by Salah-Eddine’s return to the Netherlands, continued to work quietly at Trigoria, waiting for an opportunity.

The emergency, however, has given him back some space: a starter at Celtic Park, adapted to the opposite flank, he responded with a tidy and solid performance, featuring pace, duels, and simplicity. Now against Como, his chances are strong.

With Celik suspended, Rensch is the prime candidate to start, writes La Gazzetta dello Sport, even if Tsimikas remains in the running.

Gasperini is considering a new winger pairing, with Rensch and Wesley also ready to swap flanks to add dynamism.

Looking ahead, the Dutchman could become a stable asset: with Ndicka at the Africa Cup of Nations and Celik destined to drop back, important opportunities are opening up.

Priced at €5 million, Rensch, 22, has demonstrated patience and reliability. Now his time seems to have truly come.
