The 23-year-old only joined Como last summer from KRC Genk for €5m plus add-ons.
He is a Gambia international with 12 senior caps for his country.
Primarily a left-sided attacking winger, Fadera scored one goal and provided four assists in his debut season at Como, achieved during 28 Serie A appearances.
Those were 20 starts and eight games coming off the bench as a substitute.
