The Real Madrid transfer window is, except for a big last minute start, probably finished. Even if it is true that in recent days the hypothesis of seeing a midfielder disembark by the end of the market had been put forward by the Madrid press, this is not the trend.

To the point where he very quickly became international to Argentinian. This summer, there was already a question of a return, but the Madrid management preferred that there is one more season left to continue its progress. Tottenham has tried the blow in recent days, but the player said no, preferring to stay in Italy and return to Madrid next summer.

It must be said that the club of the Spanish capital has a buyout clause of only 10 million euros, which it intends to raise in a little less than a year. Nico Paz will therefore be, unless surprised, the first recruit next summer. And it will not clearly be the only one, since the Merengues also target players of the caliber of Ibrahima Konaté (Liverpool), which will be at the end of the contract except reversal of the situation, or Rodri (Manchester City).
