Tottenham continue to show ambition in the transfer market, with Nico Paz emerging as their latest target.

[p][a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/tottenham/UDg08Ohm/"]Spurs[/a] have already strengthened significantly this summer, bringing in [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/senesi-marcos/tzX63L7E/"]Marcos Senesi[/a], [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/robertson-andrew/6e7Be9VI/"]Andy Robertson[/a] and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/van-hecke-jan-paul/WG59HGIH/"]Jan Paul van Hecke[/a] to bolster their defence, while [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/dubravka-martin/dp3dkdsI/"]Martin Dubravka[/a] is arriving to provide competition in goal.[/p][p]The club has also been exploring midfield reinforcements this week, holding talks over [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/tonali-sandro/fmQVO5TQ/"]Sandro Tonali[/a] and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/fernandes-mateus/rFdshPHI/"]Mateus Fernandes[/a], with [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/wharton-adam/v5IYUpDm/"]Adam Wharton[/a] remaining another player under consideration.[/p][p][b]Now, sources have confirmed to Flashscore that Tottenham are among the clubs showing serious interest in [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/paz-martinez-nicolas/GG6EYRT0/"]Paz[/a].[/b][/p][p][a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/real-madrid/W8mj7MDD/"]Real Madrid[/a] have activated their €9 million buyback clause to re-sign the 21-year-old from Como, but Jose Mourinho does not see him as a natural fit for the system he is building. As a result, the Spanish giants are open to selling Paz for a significant profit this summer.[/p][embed guid="ab6d17af-7d7a-4054-bbe6-288c896dbcc9" url="https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/2070161920728994257" social-type="twitter" /][p][b]Flashscore understands Tottenham have been kept informed of developments throughout the process and are open to making a move.[/b][/p][p]Madrid are expected to demand upwards of €60 million for the Argentina international. Former club Como, along with [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/inter/Iw7eKK25/"]Inter Milan[/a], [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/arsenal/hA1Zm19f/"]Arsenal[/a] and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/chelsea/4fGZN2oK/"]Chelsea[/a], have been made aware of the likely direction of his future.[/p][p]Spurs remain determined to add more creativity to their squad. They have been in detailed talks with [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/manchester-city/Wtn9Stg0/"]Manchester City[/a] over [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/savinho/faynRsvT/"]Savinho[/a], although negotiations have progressed reasonably slowly.[/p][p]Paz is viewed as an attractive target, with his age, technical quality and long-term potential making him one of the standout young attacking midfielders becoming available this summer.[/p][infobox id="f961102e-920a-4281-b5f2-f996852544cf" /]
