La Liga giants Real Madrid have this week at last come to a definitive decision on the future of Nico Paz with the club.
This comes amid confirmation that the Argentine will imminently return to Spain’s capital, only to be shipped off once more before the summer is out…
Youngster Paz has of course seen his name dominate the headlines at Real Madrid for some time now.
Fresh off another starring season on the books of Serie A outfit Como, the 21-year-old’s former employers were widely tipped to activate their buyback option on Paz this summer.
Recent speculation in the media suggested that the attacking midfielder could yet stay put in Italy, but as alluded to above, on Thursday, Florentino Pérez and co. have shown their hand.
As per a report from market insider Fabrizio Romano:
‘Real Madrid officially inform Como they activate €9m buy back clause for Nico Paz.’
Crucially, though, it is also noted that:
‘Nico returns and the club gives Como the chance to buy him for €60m from now to Monday. Otherwise, next week Nico will be back to Real Madrid — and on the market again for MORE than €60m.’
