Real Madrid's Nico Paz Could Move to Premier League Amid Como Struggles
June 23, 2026 · Sofía Romero
Nico Paz's future is uncertain as Real Madrid considers selling him to the Premier League while Como struggles with financial demands.
Nico Paz has emerged as a key player during his time at Serie A side Como, contributing to their qualification for the Champions League over the last two seasons. As Real Madrid contemplates a buyback option for the talented midfielder, there are indications that he may soon find himself in the Premier League. Reports suggest that Los Blancos are asking for a substantial fee from Como to facilitate Paz's return, with Jose Mourinho echoing similar sentiments regarding the situation.

SportItalia has indicated that negotiations are intensifying, with Como executives set to travel to Madrid next week to discuss a potential deal with Real Madrid. However, the €60 million price tag has left Como in a precarious position, and they are hesitant about Real Madrid’s €80 million buyback demand. This scenario has prompted concern in Italy, with the possibility of English clubs entering the fray for Paz.
Complicating matters is the stance of Nico Paz and his representatives, who are reportedly keen on remaining with Como beyond this summer. If Paz asserts his desires, he could gain more control over his future rather than being utilized by Real Madrid purely as a financial asset. With negotiations unfolding, Como's next steps will hinge significantly on the player's decisions and the influence of his entourage.
