Overview

• Multiple outlets citing Fichajes report Tottenham are readying a €80m (£69m) proposal for the Como playmaker.
• Football Italia, via Sky Sport Italia’s Gianluca Di Marzio, says an initial €40m offer was rejected earlier in August and Spurs intend to increase it.
• Real Madrid retain buy-back rights through 2027 and can match offers, with re-sign fees reported at €9m next summer or €10m in 2027.
• Tottenham’s pursuit follows James Maddison’s serious knee injury and other absences after failed efforts for Eberechi Eze and interest in Morgan Rogers.
• CaughtOffside notes Manchester United and Chelsea have also been linked with Paz, suggesting potential competition for any late-window deal.
