Full stop to the Nico Paz case, Real Madrid smiles after reaching an agreement

The exciting agreement Real Madrid has reached with Nico Paz to decide his future

One of the most talented academy players Real Madrid has ever had is Nico Paz. The young Argentine, who dazzled in all the youth categories, left Real Madrid last summer to sign for Como. A move that, after his first season in Serie A, has been considered a complete success for Nico.

By managing to show his worth and establish himself as one of the revelations of the season, Real Madrid showed interest in bringing him back. Although Nico was also on the radar of other clubs, Real Madrid had a buy-back option. This option certainly made the operation to bring Nico back much easier.

However, Real Madrid has decided to keep Nico Paz in Italy for one more season. Nico also agrees with this situation, as he'll be able to keep improving his performance at Como before returning to Real Madrid.

Nico Paz's assured future

After joining Real Madrid's academy in 2016, Nico quickly moved up the ranks until reaching Castilla in 2024. This rise didn't go unnoticed by the first team, with which he managed to play a few minutes during the season. Even though Nico made the most of his opportunities, he didn't manage to earn a spot in the squad.

This was due to the fierce competition in midfield, which is why Nico chose to head to Como. Under Cesc Fàbregas's management, Nico has managed to unleash his talent, becoming the big star of the Italian side.

With a contract until 2028, it was desired that Nico would leave Como this summer after the excellent season he played. However, the agreement he reached with Real Madrid has made it clear that, despite his level, it's still not time for him to return.

Real Madrid's agreement

This agreement between Real Madrid and Nico Paz shows how important the player is to the team's plans. Although Nico's return will take place next summer, this is a great opportunity for the 20-year-old Argentine to prepare.
