Nico Paz could make the leap to the Premier League | OneFootball

The transfer market for English club Tottenham has been quite disappointing for its fans, who have seen Heung-Min Son leave and missed out on big targets like Eberechi Eze and Morgan Gibbs-White. All this, combined with the injuries of Kulusevski and James Maddison, left the current Europa League champion without a reference point in game creation.

Faced with this need, and the push of Thomas Frank, their new coach, who usually plays with a creative player in front of the natural midfielders, the English club has set its sights on an Argentine player who was also mentioned for several clubs in this market: Nicolás Paz.

At the beginning of June, it was said that Nico Paz could return to Real Madrid, but he finally stayed to start a new season at Como 1907 in Serie A, under the tutelage of Cesc Fábregas. However, The Independant reports that Tottenham would go for him in this last week of the transfer window.

To these reports was added the information of the respected Italian journalist, Gianluca Di Marzio, who assures that the club rejected an offer of 40 million, and asks for no less than 70 to let him go. It is worth noting that Real Madrid has a buyback clause for the 20-year-old midfielder of just 20 million.

Nico Paz fights for a place in the 2026 World Cup

Unlike what usually happens in many negotiations, Nico Paz's stance will be key to resolving his future. And the player born in Tenerife will have an important decision to make in less than 300 days from the World Cup, in which he has chances of being with the current champion, Argentina.

Lionel Scaloni considers him as one of the names that could complete the squad, and he has already been called up to the national team on several occasions. A jump to the Premier League could well secure his place on the list, or, in case of not adapting, delay his consideration.

In the last season in Serie A, Nico Paz completed 35 games, with 6 goals and 8 assists and was one of the great references of the team that not only managed to maintain the category in the year of its promotion, but also finished among the top 10 in the Italian league.
