According to AS, Como have officially agreed to Nico Paz's transfer and reached an agreement with Real Madrid on a transfer fee of €60 million. Real Madrid will retain the right to buy back the player for €80 million in summer 2027, and will also have a right of first refusal.

AS reports that Como's board verbally informed Real Madrid that they accept Real Madrid's terms and agree to acquire 100% of the player registration rights for Nico Paz. The deal is expected to be announced officially next week, with both parties finalizing all negotiated terms in the contract.

The agreed fee for this deal is €60 million, though Real Madrid will retain the right to repurchase Nico Paz for €80 million in summer 2027. Additionally, should a third party attempt to sign the Argentine international in the future, Real Madrid will also have a right of first refusal.

Two weeks ago, Real Madrid had planned to include Nico Paz in their squad for the 2026-27 season, but Paz began to have doubts about his competitive role in Mourinho's team. The opportunity to play in the Champions League with Como, along with his relationship with manager Fabregas, led him to make this decision. Paz will not join another club during this transfer window.

Since then, Real Madrid's board has sought a solution aligned with Paz's current situation. At Valdebebas, Real Madrid understands they cannot act against the player's wishes or harm the club's interests. Real Madrid could have immediately activated a €9 million buy-back clause, but this option would not necessarily resolve the issue.

With a verbal agreement already in place, Real Madrid's board are confident that within a year, Nico Paz's future will be a return to his former home. Once all documents are signed, Paz will become the second-most valuable transfer involving Real Madrid's academy players, behind only the €80 million Chelsea paid for Morata.
