Arsenal are among the clubs monitoring Nico Paz as he continues to impress at Como and establish himself as one of the most exciting midfield talents in world football.
The Argentine joined the Italian side from Real Madrid and played a significant role in their impressive progress last season, helping them secure Champions League qualification ahead of established clubs such as AC Milan and Juventus.
Paz has continued to attract attention with his performances, demonstrating his technical ability, creativity and growing influence in midfield. His development has been particularly impressive, with several clubs now reportedly considering a move for him.
In midweek, Como faced Manchester United, and Paz delivered an outstanding performance as his side secured a 4-1 victory over the Red Devils. The result represented a heavy defeat for United in European football, while Paz further strengthened his reputation as a player capable of performing on a major stage.
Arsenal and Chelsea monitor Nico Paz
Despite attracting interest from bigger clubs during the summer, Paz resisted the temptation to leave Como because he wanted to remain at a team where he could enjoy regular playing time.
The midfielder has become one of the first names on the team sheet under Cesc Fabregas, benefiting from the trust placed in him and the opportunity to continue developing. His importance to the Italian side has made his situation particularly interesting as leading clubs assess their options ahead of future transfer windows.
According to Fichajes, Arsenal are keen on signing Paz, but they are not the only Premier League club interested in securing his services. Chelsea are also reportedly in the running and are working to beat the Gunners to his signature.
Como face uncertainty over Paz’s future
Paz appears to be enjoying life at Como, where he has the freedom and regular opportunities needed to continue his development. However, his growing reputation could make it increasingly difficult for the club to retain him if interest from major European sides intensifies.
A move to Arsenal or Chelsea would be a significant step in his career, but the midfielder would need to decide whether he could secure enough playing time at a bigger club.
For now, Paz remains an important figure at Como, and his immediate priority will be to maintain his impressive performances. Nevertheless, with Arsenal and Chelsea reportedly monitoring his situation, speculation about his future is likely to continue as his reputation grows.
