Didac Aguirre Florentino Gives the OK, Real Madrid Will Pay 8 Million Euros for Modric's 'Kid' Replacement
The Important Signing with Which Florentino Pérez Seeks to Secure the Talented Replacement for Luka Modric
For more than a decade, Luka Modric has been responsible for defending Real Madrid at all times. Shining in every match played with Real Madrid, Modric has been essential to several successes achieved with the team. Unfortunately, both for Modric and Real Madrid, the Croatian's age is now a factor to consider.
At 39 years old, Real Madrid is aware that Luka Modric won't remain with the team much longer. That's why, in preparation for this departure, Florentino Pérez has accepted the return of Nico Paz. The Real Madrid youth player, and current Como player, has had a more than excellent season in which he has proven his worth.
Securing permanence with Como, Nico Paz has shown that his time to return to Real Madrid has come. With the club having a buyback option for Nico, Florentino Pérez and Real Madrid will only have to pay 8 million euros for him.
The Worthy Successor of Modric
Joining Real Madrid's youth academy in 2016, Nico Paz managed to dazzle in all the merengue categories. Becoming part of Castilla in 2023, Nico ended up leaving Real Madrid due to the lack of opportunities in the first team. Signing with Como in Serie A, Nico Paz has established himself as one of the revelations of the season.
Scoring 6 goals and providing 7 assists in 3,244 minutes played this season, the leap Nico has made in his level is evident. Showing his quality as an excellent midfielder, Nico has presented himself as a more than worthy successor to Luka Modric.
At just 20 years old, Nico could follow in Modric's footsteps and provide much more than a glorious decade to Real Madrid. The fact that Florentino has agreed to pay his buyback clause shows how important Nico is for Real Madrid's future.
The New Star of Real Madrid
Nico Paz is the clear demonstration of the unbelievable quality that Real Madrid has in its youth academy. Managing to stand out outside of Madrid, Nico has very deservedly earned the return to a club where he must follow in the footsteps of the great Luka Modric.
