Nico Paz has made a strong first impression in Serie A and is already starting to draw the attention of bigger clubs, for instance, Milan. The prodigy drew his first start in the most recent round after coming off the bench in the first two. He should do it again versus Atalanta.
According to La Provincia, the Rossoneri are considering investing in him in January already. Como signed him for €6M from Real Madrid last summer. The Spanish giants have both a buy-back and a resale clause. They’ll receive half of the fee if another team acquires him.
Milan would have to spend at least €10M to acquire Nico Paz in January. His price tag could easily increase in the coming months. The Rossoneri might move early to block him and perhaps let him finish the season with the Lariani.
The 20-year-old featured eight times with Real Madrid’s first team in recent campaigns, scoring once. He was a regular for their Castilla side, with which he posted 10 goals and 4 assists in 29 games in 2023/2024.
The talent was born from Argentinian parents in Santa Cruz de Tenerife and has represented the Albiceleste at the youth level. He wasn’t called up for the Olympics despite a few caps with Javier Mascherano’s side.
Our Take on Milan and Nico Paz
The sample size is minuscule, but he resembles Kaká a little for the way he moves, or, to make a less heavy comparison, Charles De Ketelaere. He would fit well in several teams if he grew consistently. However, Real Madrid rarely lose control over their starlets, so he’ll probably simply head back if he fully flourishes.
