Real Madrid already have their first signing secured for the 2026/27 season. The Spanish giants will activate the buy-back clause for Como midfielder Nico Paz.
Nico Paz came through Real’s youth academy, but was sold to Como in 2024 for €6 million (R$ 36.2 million at the exchange rate at the time).
The deal included a buy-back option. And now, Real Madrid will pay €9 million (R$ 52.8 million at the current exchange rate) to bring him back.
The information comes from Diário Ás.
The deadline to activate the buy-back option is May 30, but all parties (Real, Como, and the player) are already aware that it will be exercised.
At Como, Nico Paz has made 72 appearances, scored 16 goals, and provided 15 assists since 2024/25.
Como are currently in sixth place (the Conference League spot), but they still have a chance of qualifying even for the Champions League.
