Accelerations, head held high, vision of a playmaker. Nico Paz is the best news that Como has received so far, obviously together with a ranking that is smiling for now after the two victories against Atalanta and Hellas Verona. Already three assists in the championship and, above all, called up to Lionel Scaloni’s Argentina national team. A sort of market also for the Albiceleste, given that Nico Paz was born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, on Spanish soil, but has dual citizenship. A bit like Italy did with Retegui, Scaloni’s intention is to anticipate possible competition and secure a player who seems to be able to have his say in the years to come.
Nico Paz is closely watched by the club where he grew up, that is, Real Madrid. Who sold him in the summer for 6 million plus 50% of the future resale, but who still has a buy-back clause, as was the case for Morata in the first years of Juventus.
The Como midfielder has already been called up several times by the Argentine national teamalready playing four games with the under23s and 8 with the under20 selection. As soon as he makes his debut in a senior team match he will no longer be able to be called up by the Spanish team. Thus Scaloni hopes to definitively secure the Como star.
