Real Madrid had previously sold Paz in 2024, but included a buy-back clause worth €9 million that expires on May 30.

Como is reportedly working to keep Paz for another year, and Gianluca Di Marzio claims that Jose Mourinho wants to bring him back to Real Madrid as soon as possible.

Paz is said to be happy with his current team and would like to stay for another year, making the situation complex as Real Madrid holds the negotiating power.

If Real Madrid were to let Paz stay in Italy, they would have another chance to sign him in 2027 for €10 million.
