Future Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has reportedly identified his top target for one of the first new signings during his second stint at the club.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, "The Special One" is keen to bring Nico Paz from Como into his squad. Paz was named the best midfielder in Serie A last season. The Argentine talent contributed 12 goals and 7 assists in 35 matches in the Italian top flight, leading Cesc Fàbregas's team to a historic first-ever Champions League appearance.
Real Madrid is, in fact, the 21-year-old's former club, and they have two options to re-sign him at a favorable price: for €9 million now or €10 million next year. Just days ago, Di Marzio reported that Paz himself wishes to spend a third consecutive season with Como.
Meanwhile, Como president Mirwan Suwarso addressed the matter with Sky Sport. "Everyone knows about Real Madrid's right to bring the player back. However, we always try to look at life positively. Years ago, we never would have imagined having a player like him. We are grateful for Real Madrid's generosity, which allowed us to sign him. It was an excellent deal," he commented.
