Soccer: Nico Paz to stay at Como

21-year-old Argentina attacking

midfielder Nico Paz is to stay on loan at Serie A club Como

after they reached an agreement with his owner Real Madrid, the

Lariani said Friday.

The news, circulating from Spain, had been in the air, but an

agreement between the Como club and Real Madrid was reportedly

reached in the last few hours.

The Spanish club will, however, maintain control over the

player, with a buy-back clause of €80 million.

The overall deal involves approximately €60 million for Como,

which aims to make the buy-back clause valid only for the next

summer transfer window.

Como, when asked about the matter, hasn't confirmed or provided

any further information on the news currently circulating around

the world.
