Nico Paz prefers Como stay over Real Madrid bench

Fabrizio Romano is reporting that Real Madrid genuinely weighed triggering its buy-back option on Nico Paz during the last transfer window, but the plan was to bring him in as a bench alternative. Once the Argentine got wind of that role, he went straight to his agent to lay out where he stands. His message: he loves Real Madrid and respects the manager, but he'd rather spend at least one more season at Como, play every match and keep developing than ride the bench in Madrid. At 22, the priority for him is clear. Minutes and growth beat a return to the Bernabéu that stalls his development, and that's the whole argument.
