Real Madrid Notify Como Of Intent To Sign Argentina Starlet, Putting An End To Inter Milan Links | OneFootball

Real Madrid have formally notified Como of their intention to trigger the buy-back clause on Nico Paz, ending speculation over the Argentina starlet’s future and drawing a line under any Inter Milan links.

According to Spanish outlet AS, via FCInterNews, Real Madrid want to move quickly and exercise their option to re-sign the 2004-born midfielder as soon as possible.

Como had privately hoped to retain Paz for at least another season. Those hopes are now gone. The club have received the notification from Madrid and Cesc Fabregas has been informed.

Real Madrid Value Como Relationship As Two Young Talents Enter The Picture & Inter Miss Out On Paz

Furthermore, AS report that Real Madrid view Como as an excellent partner club for the development of their young talents.

Indeed, Madrid appear to have welcomed Como’s interest in two of their cantera players, attacking wide player Yáñez and right-back Jesús Fortea.

Both featured in Real Madrid’s second Youth League triumph. Yáñez has also already made his first-team debut for the Spanish giants.

Therefore, the relationship between the two clubs looks set to continue in a different form.

Indeed, with Paz heading back to Madrid while new young talents potentially make the journey in the opposite direction.

For Inter, any remaining hope of signing Paz is now definitively extinguished. The player heads back to Spain, leaving Italian football richer for his two seasons at the Sinigaglia.
