What happened: Real Madrid and Como are set to meet next week to discuss Nico Paz's situation, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Argentine prefers to remain at Como, but Real Madrid are in control of the decision. Real want to re-structure the deal, while Como remain happy with the current conditions.

Why it matters: The talks will shape the next step for one of Como's key creative pieces, with Real Madrid holding the leverage through their existing agreement. It follows the same Nico Paz who told Real Madrid he prefers to stay at Como, leaving the structure of any revised deal as the central sticking point.

What to watch: The outcome of next week's meeting between the clubs will signal whether Paz stays at Como or Real Madrid reshape the terms.
