Here’s the latest update from the ongoing FIFA World Cup as of 2026-06-30 00:42:00.
Real Madrid Retains Nico Paz at Como for Another Season
Real Madrid has announced that promising midfielder Nico Paz will remain with Serie A’s Como for the upcoming season, solidifying his role at the Italian club. The LaLiga powerhouse retains an option to bring the playmaker back to Madrid in 2027.
Paz’s Impact at Como
At just 21 years old, Paz has been instrumental in Como’s success since his arrival in 2024. He played a key role in helping the club qualify for the UEFA Champions League for the first time in its history last season and was named Serie A’s best midfielder.
The Argentina international, currently representing his country in the FIFA World Cup 2026, originally developed through Real Madrid’s academy before transferring to Como in August 2024.
“Real Madrid, Como, and Nico Paz have reached an agreement for the player to stay at the Italian club next season,” stated Madrid in an official announcement on Monday.
Future Prospects
The agreement, made at the player’s request, allows Real Madrid to maintain a unilateral option to reacquire Paz’s rights for the 2027-28 season. Reports from ESPN indicate that Madrid’s plans to sign another midfielder are contingent on one of their current players leaving.
Following Dani Ceballos’s departure, Real Madrid’s roster still features Aurélien Tchouaméni, Eduardo Camavinga, Federico Valverde, Jude Bellingham, Arda Güler, and new signing Bernardo Silva, all under the management of José Mourinho.
“After much consideration, I’ve concluded that staying at Como for another year is the best option for my career,” said Paz in a social media statement. “This club has provided me the opportunity to grow and flourish as a player.”
“I believe this is the best decision for both myself and Real Madrid. It’s a crucial year for my development, and I aim to continue growing and preparing for the future.”
