Capello hints that Nico Paz will return to Real Madrid but Yildiz has a ‘greater ability’

Fabio Capello is excited to watch Nico Paz and Kenan Yildiz in action during Como-Juventus on Sunday, but even if he believes the Bianconeri star has a ‘greater ability to use both feet’, the Argentine seems destined to return to Real Madrid.

Juventus travel to Como on Sunday in Serie A Round 7, and Capello will be in the stands to watch two of the most talented players in the league: Nico Paz and Yildiz.

Capello compares Yildiz and Nico Paz

“Both have great technique; perhaps the Juventus player has a greater ability to use both feet compared to the Argentine, who mainly relies on his excellent left foot,” Capello told Gazzetta.

“Compared to him, the Turk has more dribbling ability; he’s dangerous in one-on-one situations and has excellent vision and finishing skills. He sees both the play and the goal well, and performs better as a winger who can cut inside towards the centre of the pitch.”

Nico Paz, on the other hand, probably offers the best version of himself when deployed as an attacking midfielder.

“He seems to express himself better in a more central role, although he also has great vision and shooting ability,” argued Capello.

“He’s a more straightforward player compared to Yildiz and perhaps more effective. Both, however, are players with great potential. For example, Real Madrid certainly won’t let Nico Paz get away.”

Nico Paz is under contract with Como, but Real Madrid have an option to re-sign him in the coming years.

Como President Mirwan Suwarso said in a recent interview that the Merengues can re-sign the Argentine “whenever they want.”

Nico Paz is 21, while Yildiz is 20, so they naturally have room for improvement.

“Both can still develop physically,” said Capello.

“Nico Paz, moreover, seems to enjoy himself a bit too much, something that Yildiz, playing for Juve, is not allowed to do. The Argentine, at Como, is the best of them all; everyone talks about him, so he tends to like himself a bit too much, even if unintentionally.”

Capello names third exciting attacking midfielder in Serie A

Lastly, Capello mentioned a third player among the most exciting attacking midfielders in Serie A.

“I’d also include Soulé with them,” he concluded.

“Three creative players who can always decide a match with a single play. It’s from this quality that you can recognise players who have something extra.”
