Official: Returns to Real Madrid in 2026, it's a bargain, Florentino Pérez will pay very little

The President is rubbing his hands thanks to the brilliance he showed some time ago: great signing at a very low price

Florentino Pérez always looks out for Real Madrid's best interests, and everything he does is to help the club move forward. The president has had to make a series of important decisions during this summer transfer window. He has brought in several renowned players who have made the fans excited.

Real Madrid have started the season very well, which is exactly what Florentino Pérez wanted in order to leave the past behind. Last season was not good at all, and everyone is looking to improve this year. Now, there is talk of an imminent arrival that would bring a lot of quality to Los Merengues.

Florentino Pérez and his management

Real Madrid have been at the top of soccer for many years, and, in part, it is thanks to Florentino Pérez, who manages everything in the best possible way. The club's highest authority left Carlo aside to give way to Xabi Alonso, who is exciting Los Merengues. The Spaniard has had a perfect start, and everything suggests that things will continue in the same direction.

In fact, Los Merengues have shown their full support from the very beginning, and the coach has expressed his gratitude for it. Press conferences always give people something to talk about, and he has been asked several times about his players. Lately, Real Madrid's defense has improved thanks to Dean Huijsen and Militao, who are performing at a high level.

Even so, the squad could still be improved further with a signing that Los Merengues have been demanding for some time. We are talking about Nico Paz, who is putting in great performances with Fàbregas's Como. Florentino Pérez kept a buy-back option, and everything suggests that it will be exercised before long.

Nico Paz, the star Real Madrid can buy back

If Florentino Pérez had bought him back this year, he would have done so for €8 million. Each year, the price will go up by another million until 2027, when he will be able to sign Nico Paz for €10 million. Real Madrid's gem is developing more and more and looks set to become a player for the ages, so Real Madrid could bring him back soon.

We still can't take anything for granted, but it is likely that Florentino will make a move in a few months to buy him back. Everything suggests that there will be no more waiting and that he will be brought back in 2026.
