"Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso (Image credit: Getty Images) Real Madrid have already brought in a handful of signings to back new head coach Xabi Alonso but the transfer market never stands still for the self-styled biggest football club in the world. Reports this week indicate that a significant outgoing could also be on the cards. Vinicius Junior has been linked with a move away from Real Madrid for some time and his apparent disgruntlement could indeed lead to his departure from the Bernabeu."
"While many a Madridista will be glad to see the back of a player who seemingly has a poor relationship with his manager and a tendency to rock the boat, any forward with the ability to stake a legitimate claim for the Ballon d'Or is going to take some replacing.

Como attacking midfielder Nico Paz isn't a direct tactical successor for the out-of-favour Brazilian superstar but could be exactly the addition Real Madrid need to make in order to back-fill his contributions."

"Nico already said YES." Los Blancos have a buyback clause for the 21-year-old, who was sold to Como by Real Madrid in 2024. They elected not to trigger it in the summer of 2025 and cannot do so in January."
Real Madrid have added signings under head coach Xabi Alonso while also facing potential outgoing transfers. Vinicius Junior has been linked with a move away amid apparent disgruntlement and a strained relationship with the manager. Any departure would require a significant replacement given his Ballon d'Or-level ability. Como midfielder Nico Paz is targeted as a potential cut-price backfill rather than a direct tactical successor. Los Blancos retain a buyback clause for the 21-year-old but could not trigger it in January and chose not to in summer 2025. Como plan to keep Paz until summer and a deal is aimed for June 2026.
