An Anfield Watch writer has urged Liverpool to sign Nico Paz, though Real Madrid have a buy-back option worth approximately €80 million next summer.

Liverpool have been urged to do everything they can to sign Como attacking midfielder Nico Paz. The Argentine is enjoying an impressive season and is seen as one of Lionel Messi's potential successors in the national team.

An Anfield Watch writer believes Liverpool sporting executive Julian Ward should focus on signing Paz, even if the transfer requires a huge financial outlay. The young player stands out for his technique, goal contributions and ability to create chances for his team-mates.

However, a deal would not be straightforward. As Fabrizio Romano previously reported, Real Madrid have a buy-back option for Paz worth approximately €80 million next summer. They are expected to exercise it.

The competition in Real Madrid's attack, where Jude Bellingham and Arda Guler already play, could theoretically open the door to negotiations for Liverpool. However, the English club would probably have to offer Real Madrid a sum significantly above €80 million.
