Neither Enzo Fernández nor Mac Allister: the Argentine player Real Madrid wants to sign

Nicolás Paz is very close to returning to Real Madrid to become one of the squad's reinforcements ahead of the Club World Cup, which will begin next June 14.

The Argentine midfielder, who came up through the youth divisions of the Merengue team, had an excellent season as a starter forComo, the Italian team managed by Cesc Fàbregas, where he scored six goals and provided nine assists in  34 matches. Although he feels comfortable at his current club, he is reportedly seriously considering the possibility of wearing the white jersey again.

According to Spanish media, a meeting will take place in the coming hours between Madrid's management and the player's representatives to determine his future. The Madrid club, which still owns 50% of the player's rights, could exercise the buy-back option for a value of 8 million euros and bring him back to its ranks.

When asked about his future, the 20-year-old, drafted by Lionel Scaloni for the matches against Chile and Colombia, chose not to give details. "Right now I'm calm, thinking about the national team and the holidays. Later, we'll see, and whatever has to happen will happen," he said at Ezeiza airport.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid plans to travel to Miami on June 14, where it will make its tournament debut on the 18th against Al Hilal, the Asian champion. Later, it will face Pachuca on the 22nd in Charlotte, a team it already defeated in last year's final, and will close the initial phase on the 27th against Salzburg in Philadelphia.

On that trip, the recent signings Dean Huijsen and Trent Alexander-Arnold will be present, as they joined the squad a few days ago. In addition, the club is still searching for a left back, and Álvaro Carreras, from Sporting Lisboa, appears to be the closest candidate to joining.
