Manchester United are reportedly keeping a close eye on Como sensation Nico Paz as they consider a potential move for the talented attacking midfielder next summer.
United’s interest in the Argentine is understood to have existed even before his impressive performance against them, suggesting that the club’s recruitment team have been tracking his development for some time.
Paz has established himself as one of the exciting young attacking talents in European football, with his creativity, technical ability, vision and ability to operate between the lines making him an attractive prospect.
However, signing him will not be straightforward.
Real Madrid inserted a reported £67 million buy-back clause into the agreement when Paz left for Como two years ago. This gives the Spanish giants an important advantage if they decide to bring their former academy talent back to the Bernabéu.
There is also the question of his position at Real Madrid, where Jude Bellingham currently occupies his preferred No.10 role.
For Manchester United, Nico Paz could offer creativity, unpredictability and another dimension in the attacking midfield department.
The question now is whether United can convince him that Old Trafford is the right destination for the next stage of his career.
NICO PAZ AT OLD TRAFFORD? THAT WOULD BE AN INTERESTING SIGNING! 🔥🔴
