Nico Paz, the 20-year-old Argentine sensation, has been making waves in Serie A with his exceptional performances for Como. The young midfielder has not only showcased his extraordinary talent but also demonstrated the mental fortitude required to become a great player.
Despite a recent setback where he missed his first penalty in Serie A against Lecce, Paz quickly bounced back, scoring a beautiful and crucial goal with an unstoppable left-footed strike. This resilience has further cemented his reputation as a player with both skill and character.
Carlo Ancelotti, one of the most successful coaches in football history, recently praised Paz, stating, “We are following Nico closely; we consider him part of Real Madrid’s future.” These words carry significant weight and are not mere platitudes.
Calciomercato report how Como acquired Paz from Real Madrid for €6 million, with a 50% sell-on clause. However, Real Madrid cleverly included a buy-back option in the contract, allowing them to repurchase the Argentine for €12 million – double the amount paid by the Lombardy club.
Inter Milan has emerged as a serious contender for Paz’s signature, with preliminary discussions already taking place. The Nerazzurri’s historical connection with Argentine players has not gone unnoticed by the young talent. However, Paz’s future hinges on Real Madrid’s decision: will they facilitate a move to Inter or bring him back to the Bernabéu?
If Real Madrid opens the door for negotiations with Inter, early indications suggest a potential valuation of around €25 million. The deal could be structured similarly to Brahim Díaz’s transfer, with Real Madrid retaining certain clauses to maintain control over the player’s future.
