Como confirm Nico Paz will stay as Real Madrid keep buy-back option

Como have secured Nico Paz for another season after reaching an agreement with Real Madrid. The 21-year-old will continue his development at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia under Cesc Fabregas, a move shaped by the player's own desire to remain in a familiar environment.

Madrid have protected their long-term interests by including a buy-back clause. "The agreement, concluded at the request of the player himself, also provides that Real Madrid maintains a unilateral option to reacquire the rights to the sporting performances of Nico Paz for the 2027-2028 season." Since arriving in Italy Paz has become one of Serie A's most exciting talents, making 75 appearances across Serie A and the Coppa Italia with 19 goals and 17 assists.

His blend of finishing and creativity has made him central to Como's offensive play. Fabregas fought to keep Paz after the midfielder played a pivotal role in Como’s campaign, which secured Champions League qualification on the final day.
