The 2016–17 Lega Pro Divisione Unica was the third season of the unified Lega Pro division, the third highest division in the Italian football league system. The championship name, which is Divisione Unica according to the FIGC regulations, is nevertheless referred to as Lega Pro in official documents.[4] The season marked the final year that the division would carry the Lega Pro name as it was changed back to Serie C for the 2017–18 season.

Como S.r.l. to have the club's sporting title attributed to it,[12] and Lega Pro expelled the club.[13]
