Breaking News: Carlo Ancelloti opens door for the return of Real Madrid prodigy
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has sparked excitement among the club’s fans by leaving the door open for the potential return of Nico Paz, a talented young attacking midfielder who currently plies his trade in Italy with Como.
The 20-year-old Argentine has been making waves in Serie A, scoring twice and providing four assists in 16 appearances this season. His impressive performances have not gone unnoticed, and talks of a possible return to Real Madrid have been gaining traction. Paz himself has previously expressed his desire to return to the Bernabeu, admitting that he has unfinished business in Madrid.
Ancelotti’s recent comments have only added fuel to the fire, as he revealed that Real Madrid are closely monitoring Paz’s progress in Italy and believe he can be a part of the club’s future. “For sure he can be part of Real Madrid’s future,” Ancelotti said, as quoted by Fabrizio Romano. “We’re constantly monitoring his progress at Como. He’s very good, he’s a top talent.”
When asked about the decision to let Paz leave Real Madrid over the summer, Ancelotti explained that the young player needed regular game-time, which would not have been possible at the Bernabeu. “This season was needed for Nico to play on a regular basis out of Real Madrid, it was a smart choice,” Ancelotti said.
As previously reported, Real Madrid retains a buyback option for Paz, which is set at €9m for 2025, €10m for 2026, and €11m for 2027. Additionally, they also retain 50% of any future sale of the young talent. This clause ensures that Real Madrid has a significant say in Paz’s future, and it remains to be seen whether they will choose to exercise their buyback option in the coming years.
Paz’s potential return to Real Madrid would undoubtedly be a welcome boost to the club’s attacking options. The young Argentine has already demonstrated his ability to make a significant impact in Serie A, and it is likely that he would be eager to prove himself at the highest level.
As the situation continues to unfold, Real Madrid fans will be keeping a close eye on Paz’s progress in Italy. With Ancelotti’s comments sparking renewed speculation about a potential return, it remains to be seen whether Paz will eventually make his way back to the Bernabeu. One thing is certain, however: Nico Paz is a talented young player with a bright future ahead of him, and Real Madrid will be monitoring his progress with great interest.
