Real Madrid is moving forward with plans for Argentine midfielder Nico Paz, who is set to leave the club. Recent reports indicate that Real Madrid will not entertain any further loan arrangements for the player and prefers to finalize a permanent transfer.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, during discussions with Italian club Como—where Paz spent last season—Real Madrid representatives communicated that a temporary deal is off the table. Como must now decide whether to buy the midfielder outright if they wish to retain his services.
Head coach José Mourinho is reportedly in favor of this permanent transfer, as the club aims to make a definitive decision regarding a player who has showcased his talents in Serie A. Paz had an impressive season with Como, appearing in 40 matches, scoring 13 goals, and providing 8 assists, with a market value estimated at €80 million according to Transfermarkt.
The next move lies with Como, as the club deliberates on making a substantial investment for Paz’s transfer. Ongoing negotiations are expected to reach a conclusion soon.
