Real Madrid welcomes strong reinforcements in the winter window! Scored 9 goals in 12 games and is worth 55 million, a double harvest in the competitive economy

According to the Argentinian media "Tyc Sport", Real Madrid intends to repurchase midfielder Nico Paz, who is currently playing for Como in Serie A, in the upcoming winter transfer window. This decision is due to Real Madrid's recent unstable performance and the team's urgent need to enhance the creativity of the midfield.

This season, under the leadership of Alonso, Real Madrid got off to a good start at the beginning of the season with a new tactical system with Guler as the core. However, after losing the last three games, the league lead is only 1 point. After losing to Liverpool in the Champions League, they are also outside the direct promotion zone.

Real Madrid has suffered a significant decline in form recently. In the last three games, the team not only failed to win, but also exposed serious problems on the offensive end.

Guler, who had high hopes at the beginning of the season, failed to contribute any assists in the last three games, while Mbappe, who was in hot form at the beginning of the season, also fell into a scoring drought.

The tactical system created by Alonso, with Guler as the organizing midfielder and relying on the speed of Vinicius and Mbappe for quick counterattacks, has been gradually understood by opponents. Under this situation, the Real Madrid coaching staff urgently needs to make adjustments to the lineup and tactical system. The first task is to enhance the creativity of the midfield.

Real Madrid's midfield needs new impetus, which is why they quickly set their sights on old player Nico Pas.

Nico Paz currently plays for Serie A club Como and is in excellent form this season. In 12 appearances in Serie A, he scored 5 goals and contributed 4 assists. He personally participated in 9 goals.

The 21-year-old Argentine midfielder actually came from Real Madrid's youth training system. He entered Real Madrid's Castilla youth training camp at the age of 12. However, after entering the first team in the 2023-24 season, due to the gathering of stars in the team, he did not get many playing opportunities.

In the summer of 2024, Paz transferred to Serie A team Como for 6 million euros. The shrewd Real Madrid management added a very low buy-back clause and a 50% secondary transfer share into the contract.

Under the training of Como coach Cesc Fabregas, Paz has made rapid progress. In the 2024-25 season, he played 35 times in all competitions and contributed 6 goals and 8 assists.

Nico Paz is 1.86 meters tall and weighs 81 kilograms. He has excellent physical conditions. As a left-footed player, he mainly plays as an attacking midfielder or right midfielder, and can also play as a central midfielder or defensive midfielder.

In Como's 4231 formation, Paz mainly serves as an offensive midfielder. Not only is his offensive performance eye-catching, his defensive statistics are also among the best, and he has shown strong enthusiasm in steals and ground confrontation.

Paz is a typical Argentinian technical midfielder, good at controlling the ball and passing, and has excellent awareness and overall view. He is particularly good at delivering exquisite through balls at the front of the penalty area to create scoring opportunities for his teammates.

In Fabregas's tactical system, Paz is given great tactical freedom, able to retreat to organize and advance, and at the same time, he moves actively and smartly without the ball. He has a wide range of movement and can deliver precise through balls as well as long-range shots.

From a competitive perspective, Nico Pas is a versatile and creative midfielder. With Guler being heavily targeted by his opponents, Paz can provide another option for Alonso.

Paz's ability to pass and create opportunities is not inferior to Güler, and he also has stronger confrontation capabilities. His active pressing in the midfield and frontcourt is also very consistent with Alonso's tactical requirements.

From an economic perspective, this deal is also very attractive. Paz's current worth in the German transfer market has reached 55 million euros. According to this development trend, it is expected to reach 70-80 million euros by the end of the season.

Real Madrid has a buy-back clause of less than 10 million euros, plus a 50% second-transfer share clause, which means that even if Paz's performance is not as good as expected after his return, he can still get huge transfer profits from selling next summer.

Nico Paz has rejected invitations from many teams this summer and has clearly expressed his desire to return to the Bernabeu to prove himself.
