Real Madrid’s plans to activate a €9 million buy-back option and slap a €60 million price tag on Nico Paz have stalled after the midfielder expressed his firm desire to stay at Champions League-bound Como.

Real Madrid’s summer transfer plans have hit an unexpected hurdle regarding the future of midfield prodigy Nico Paz.

While Los Blancos have formally notified Serie A side Como of their intention to activate their €9 million buy-back clause with the explicit goal of flipping the Argentine international for a massive €60 million profit, the player’s camp has dramatically pushed back.

Como are set to hold crunch talks with Madrid executives this week to negotiate keeping the 21-year-old playmaker for another season.

Backed by manager Cesc Fàbregas and newly secured UEFA Champions League football, Paz has directly informed club leadership that consistent minutes in Italy trump a returning bench role under newly appointed Real Madrid boss José Mourinho, leaving a potential summer transfer row wide open.
