Real Madrid opt against activating Nico Paz clause, Como set to keep player

Real Madrid have officially informed Como that they will not exercise their option to buy back Nico Paz for 8 million euros this summer. The club's decision has been confirmed to both the Italian club and the player's representatives.

Thus, Nico Paz will continue to play for Como in Serie A for one more season. The Italian club had been uncertain about the midfielder's future, but the formal communication from Real Madrid has cleared up any doubts.

As stipulated in the contract, Real Madrid will have a new buy-back clause next summer, this time worth 9 million euros. Paz's continuity at Como will allow the player to continue to develop and gain experience in Italian football.

The young midfielder has been an important player for Como since his arrival and the club is confident that his progression will continue this season. Real Madrid's decision is part of a strategy to give the player more minutes and experience before considering a return to the club.

Sources close to the Italian club have expressed satisfaction at being able to count on Paz for at least one more season. The future of the Argentine midfielder will remain linked to Como, although Real Madrid's interest could be reactivated next summer if they decide to exercise the new buy-back clause.
