Sounds like the player really wants to end up at Madrid so happy to stay for another year.

May be chartering on conspiracy theory territory but do you reckon Levy’s reputation as being difficult to deal with would be in a players mind signing for us? If we signed Paz and Madrid try to sign him in the next 2 years then Levy would be a nightmare for Madrid

Maybe in some cases. Though we've been able to sign some fantastically talented players with Levy in charge so if true not always the case.

If a player sees us as just a stepping stone to that extent sign someone else instead anyway.

Not bad shout. My view is more conspiracy theory. Levy does everything he can to try sign said players as a smoke screen, when the real aim is to sign the next Bale or Rodon diamond in the dirt.

Sounds way off, but doesn't feel it....

I doubt Levy would put much effort in a smoke screen operation. Doesn't seem worth it. The agent of whoever we actually want to sign will probably make it clear enough to other interested clubs anyway.

We've tried and sometimes partially successfully to keep a transfer secret and had other clubs catch onto it anyway (William and Luiz as examples iirc). We probably could fool parts of the media with a smoke screen, but we're not going to fool agents and clubs to any significant degree imo.

Hopefully Don Paratici has got some proper ITK at Como to determine whether Paz is as desperate to return to his boyhood club as Eze was so we don’t waste our time on him if so; for all of Fabriano Romano’s relentless tweeting, how did he not guess that Woolwich had a board meeting to discuss the transfer after Eze begged Legohead to sign him?!

Guess it also depends on how much self confidence Paz has but if he’s this highly regarded at the age of 20 then he probably believes that another season exhibiting his talents in Serie A will give him a better chance of becoming the heir to Kroos than trying to adapt to the rigours of EPL.

If simultaneous efforts were/are not done for more achievable alternatives and we don't see a CM signing before Monday, this will go down as another transfer gaffe... to dare may be to do but only when it is in your control. Didn't anyone at the club not envisage that the deal was of no benefit to neither Real Madrid or Como and therefore the chances of success were negligible?
