Milan and Napoli set to enter transfer battle for Como talent Nico Paz | OneFootball

Serie A outfits Milan and Napoli are probing Como’s Nico Paz.

According to a report by Daniele Longo, Milan and Napoli are interested in a possible transfer for Como midfielder Nico Paz next summer. While the player remains under the control of his former club Real Madrid, who has a buyback clause in their hands, the Rossoneri and Partenopei are hoping to convince Los Blancos to find an amicable solution.

The 20-year-old impressed during this past international break as he demonstrated a technical masterclass against Bolivia, topping off the performance with an assist to Lionel Messi’s goal.

Real Madrid hold 50% future resale rights of the Argentine on top of the buyback clause and are in no way looking to let go of him permanently. The Spanish giants are happy to see him grow at Como but a possibility of sale could open up next summer when interested clubs appear on the horizon.

Milan and Napoli are holding out their cards right now and they will join the race as soon as the interest from the Premier League strengthens.
