Although Oaktree Capital has given Inter Milan a "command" to consider financial issues and age restrictions when buying new players, which has increased the difficulty of transfers and led many Inter executives to say there will be no major moves in the winter window; however, many media outlets are still talking about Inter's old routine of "sneaking through the warehouse" under Marotta. They are considering buying new players while meeting the basic requirements of Oaktree and considering introducing them.
According to journalist Longo, Inter Milan is carefully considering signing the outstanding rising star of Apennine this season, Nico Pas, and has already carried out detailed exchanges, including interactions at the level of Marotta.
This is a very important event for Inter Milan. Pas' ability does not need to be elaborated. He is also familiar enough with this sport. If he can join a top club like Inter Milan, it will also be a promotion for himself.
Pas, under Fabregas, started 13 times in 16 Serie A games, ranking third in playing time within the team, totaling 1249 minutes. Pas is also the second most dribbling player in Serie A this season with 35 times, only behind Leo, and is also the player who creates the most opportunities and makes the most interceptions within the team.
Of course, big clubs are no strangers to Pas' growth. Although he is currently in Como, his actual ownership is in Real Madrid. It is reported that Milan has been paying attention to Pas for months, and Milan also maintains a good relationship with Real Madrid. However, the team is currently fully engaged in dealing with internal issues and has not yet contacted the player. Their chances of buying Pas are slim, which is why Milan's team reporter Longo reported on Inter's efforts to buy him.
It is understood that although Inter is not as close to Bernabeu as Milan, they take this matter seriously and have had some dialogue. Considering the special connection between the Nerazzurri and Argentine players in history, this makes it difficult for Pas to ignore Inter's interest. He and his agent team are very interested in the recognition given by Inter, and both sides have talked deeply to the level of transfer.
However, as mentioned earlier, Pas' future entirely depends on Real Madrid, and it is still uncertain whether Real Madrid will choose to negotiate with Inter or bring him back to Bernabeu. There are rumors that Real Madrid has set a price of 25 million euros for Pas and expects to adopt the transfer model of Diaz, that is, to retain the repurchase clause.
The 20-year-old Pas joined Como for 6 million euros, and Real Madrid owns 50% of the player's transfer share and also holds a repurchase clause, which is worth 8 million euros in 2025, will rise to 9 million euros in 2026, and will rise to 10 million euros in 2027.
For Inter Milan, an advantage is the experience of Achraf Hakimi's transfer. Before that, he also played for Dortmund but was owned by Real Madrid. Inter managed to get him without spending too much money. For Pas, although he has great potential, his midfield position is not suitable for Real Madrid. They have too many reliable talents in this position. If Pas returns to Bernabeu, he is likely to be treated as a substitute, which is also an important factor for him to consider joining Inter.
You know, Pas' price will not be too low. If Marotta wants to buy him (on loan), either the management gives money or he sells stars to make up for it, there is no other possibility.
