Though ostensibly brought in for his potential rather than an immediate impact, Paz has wasted no time in making a mark in Italy. Arguably Como's man of the match in the 3-1 defeat to Napoli on Friday, the 20-year-old has been one of the top performers in coach Cesc Fàbregas' XI.
In June, however, the stocky centre-forward returned to his home country with Botafogo. Since then Igor Junior has scored five goals, and though he might not be the long-term solution to Brazil's striking predicaments, he does bring enthusiasm, endeavour and an interesting mix of busy movement and finishing skills.
