Real Madrid is already moving in the market, although January serves more for planning than for executing. In the offices of the white club, work is being done with an eye on the next summer, where significant adjustments in the midfield are expected along with long-term strategic decisions.

The roadmap is clear. Florentino Pérez wants to have operations underway in advance, avoiding improvisations. The return of Nico Paz is one of them, but not the only one. The name of Chema Andrés is also strongly present on the agenda, one of the big surprises of the season.

Real Madrid understands that strengthening the midfield will be a priority. The idea of bringing back talent developed in-house is gaining weight again within the club, a policy that Florentino wants to enhance in the upcoming project.

Real Madrid and the option to reinforce the midfield with homegrown talent

Within Real Madrid, the possibility of two former academy players returning to the first team is being seriously considered. Nico Paz and Chema Andrés represent different yet complementary profiles for the midfield.

The sports management believes that both players fit into the natural evolution of the team. Youth, knowledge of the club, and potential for growth are crucial factors in this analysis.

Real Madrid has not made a definitive decision yet, but has communicated to the sports officials that monitoring will be continuous throughout the rest of the season.

Chema Andrés, under special surveillance by the white club

The case of Chema Andrés is particularly striking. The midfielder is having a remarkable season at VfB Stuttgart, where his performance has not gone unnoticed by Real Madrid.

Florentino Pérez has internally communicated that the player will be closely observed. His progress in Germany is proving to be very positive, both in consistency and impact on the game.

Real Madrid has a clear option to bring him back. According to sources close to the club, the repurchase price would be set around 13 million euros, a figure considered manageable within the planning.

"If we want him back, he comes for 13 million euros," the president reportedly commented to his board. That statement has definitively placed Chema Andrés in the center of the debate, as reported by Defensa Central.

VfB Stuttgart and a season that doesn't go unnoticed

At VfB Stuttgart, Chema Andrés has found stability and continuity. The player has taken a leap in maturity that reinforces Real Madrid’s interest.

The German club knows that the midfielder is being closely monitored. However, they realize that their room for maneuver is limited if the white team decides to proceed with the repurchase.

The 13 million euros do not seem to be an obstacle for Real Madrid if the player's performance continues until the end of the season.

Nico Paz, the first decision already made

While Chema Andrés remains under observation, Real Madrid has already made a firm decision. Nico Paz will return to the club next season. It is an open secret within Valdebebas.

Florentino Pérez has already communicated this plan to the executives and also to the player's surroundings. The player has given the green light and feels prepared to make the definitive leap.

Real Madrid considers his return strategic. He brings creativity, energy, and a real alternative for midfield rotation.

A Real Madrid that plans ahead

Real Madrid wants to avoid past mistakes and plans ahead. The potential return of Nico Paz and the monitoring of Chema Andrés are part of the same idea.

Reinforcing the midfield with known talent, at a controlled cost and with potential, is a clear priority. The 13 million euros of Chema Andrés fit into that model.

The season will dictate the pace of decisions, but Real Madrid has made it clear that the summer market starts playing out now.
