Real Madrid they confirmed the exit of the 19-year-old attacking talent Nico Pazwho joined Cesc Fabregas' Spanish-language revolution in Como in Serie A. Paz signed a four-year deal with the Italian side, who were promoted last season.
After former Barcelona captain Sergi Roberto through the door, and joined by ex-Real Madrid centre-back Raphael Varane, Paz will be looking for minutes in Lombardy where he was unlikely to arrive at the Santiago Bernabeu. He had been linked with Leganes on loan earlier in the summer, but Paz joined Como for €6m in exchange for 50% of his rights.

With Brahim Diaz, Arda Guler and Dani Ceballos ahead of him in the pecking order for Carlo Ancelotti, and none of that trio likely to be regular starters for Los Blancos, Paz's path to the first team certainly looked difficult. Paz follows Rafa Marin, Juanmi Latasa, Joselu Mato, Nacho Fernandez and Toni Kroos out the door this summer.
