Real Madrid has reportedly made a definitive decision to activate their buy-back option for attacking midfielder Nico Paz from Como, with various sources in Spain and Italy indicating a fee of 9-10 million euros.
According to Radio Marca journalist Ramón Álvarez de Mon, during today's meeting between the two clubs, Real will offer Como the chance to re-purchase the Argentine international for 60 million euros. Should this agreement be reached, the Bernabéu club would then secure a new buy-back clause, this time set at 80 million euros. If the Italian side declines this proposal, the "Royal Club" will put the 21-year-old on the market at a higher price, but without any future buy-back option.
Meanwhile, renowned transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio claims that Inter Milan is closely monitoring the situation surrounding last season's best Serie A midfielder. The Nerazzurri are reportedly prepared to do everything possible to sign him if the opportunity arises.
Paz joined Como two years ago, with the Italian club paying "Los Blancos" a mere 6 million euros for their academy product. Since then, the Argentine has scored 19 goals and provided 17 assists in 75 appearances under the guidance of Cesc Fàbregas.
