Nico Paz Sparks Como’s Serie A Dream With Third Goal Of The Season

Nico Paz is having a great start to the season, scoring again for Como. The Argentine midfielder has three goals and three assists in just five Serie A matches. He is quickly becoming one of the standout players in Italy.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Como‘s 20-year-old attacking midfielder scored his third league goal, continuing his strong form. Paz has also provided three assists, directly contributing to more than half of Como’s goals this season. His skills in creating chances and scoring goals have made him a fan favorite. Over the last two weeks, he has been especially influential, with a key performance in Como’s comeback win against Fiorentina. With this goal, Paz has scored seven goals in 37 Serie A appearances since joining from Real Madrid last season. This season, he is stepping up, wearing the number 10 shirt and leading Como’s attack. Notably, he was named Serie A Rising Star of the Month for August, as reported.

THE SIGNIFICANCE FOR COMO AND PAZ’S RISE

Como, new to Serie A after a recent promotion, have surprised many with positive results. Paz’s contributions are key to their solid start. Currently, Como have eight points from five matches, sitting 8th in the standings, just two points from the European spots this weekend. This performance comes after Como finished 10th in Serie A last season, and they are keen to improve their position in the league this year. Paz’s performances have gained attention in Italy and beyond, marking him as a player with high potential and a crucial figure in Como’s fight for stability. At only 20, his stats – three goals and three assists in five league games – place him among the top young players in Europe.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR COMO AND PAZ?

Como’s next match is against Atalanta, who are 6th in Serie A with nine points. It’s a tough challenge, as Atalanta are having a strong start and pushing for Champions League qualification. A good result could boost Como’s position closer to the top seven. If Paz continues playing at this level, Como’s hopes to avoid a relegation battle and even aim for a top-half finish seem more realistic. Fans and scouts will watch closely to see if the Argentine talent can maintain his performance as the fixtures get harder. Como is also investing significantly in their squad this season to avoid relegation, and they are expected to announce two big defensive signings soon, including Diego Carlos, as reported.
