Real Madrid parted ways with several young players in the first few weeks of the summer transfer window, including Rafa Marin, Peter Federico and Alex Jimenez. More are expected to follow, and of those who seem to be high on the exit list is Nico Paz.
Paz was on the cusp of the first team last season, and also scored against Napoli during the Champions League group stage. However, he is not expected to earn a permanent call-up to Carlo Ancelotti's squad for the upcoming 2024-25 campaign, and that has pushed him towards the exit door.
According to AS Diary, Paz wants to join Leganes if he is to leave Real Madrid this summer. His representatives have conveyed this message to the newly promoted La Liga team, although for now, they do not plan to sign him as they have other priorities to deal with first.
It remains to be seen how Paz's situation plays out in the coming weeks. He was one of the brightest in Real Madrid The La Fabrica academy, and is likely to be able to make the step up to La Liga, although that is unlikely to happen at his current club.
