Argentine midfielder Nico Paz, playing for Como in Serie A, has drawn significant interest from major European football clubs following strong performances in domestic competitions and the Champions League, including a notable display against Manchester United.

Chelsea is reportedly targeting the 22-year-old to strengthen its attacking lineup. However, potential transfers face financial complexities: Como has reportedly valued the player at over 100 million euros, while Real Madrid—the player’s former academy—retains a buyback option estimated at 80 million euros. Barcelona has also been linked to a potential signing in the summer of 2027.
