Here is a twist in the Nico Paz saga that will sting in Milan. According to information gathered by GoalZaza, Inter's pursuit of the young Argentine has hit a dead end, and the man pulling the strings is none other than José Mourinho.Mourinho has made his decision. He wants Nico Paz at Fenerbahçe. That is not just a preference; it is a statement of intent. The Special One recognises the raw talent in Paz, a player who can glide between the lines and offers the kind of creative spark that turns a predictable attack into something genuinely dangerous. For Inter, who thought they had the inside track through Cesc Fabregas's connections at Como, this is a brutal dose of reality. Fabregas had been whispering in Paz's ear, trying to sell him a project in Serie A, but Mourinho's pull remains formidable. You can almost hear the frustrated sighs from the Inter boardroom.Let's be honest here. Inter needed this deal. Their transitional play has looked laboured at times, and Paz is exactly the sort of player who thrives in those chaotic moments between defence and attack. He breaks the low block with a single pass. He glides past tired legs. But Mourinho, ever the pragmatist, has spotted the same qualities. He is not about to let a gem like that slip through his fingers for the sake of a rival's rebuilding job. The message from Istanbul is clear: come and get him if you dare.What does this mean for Fabregas He has been the public face of this pursuit, using his Gravina connections to build a bridge. But bridges crumble when a bulldozer like Mourinho parks itself in the middle of the road. Fabregas must now pivot. There is no shame in losing a battle to a manager of Mourinho's stature, but the Italian press will not be kind. They will call it a failure. They will say Inter bottled it. And maybe they did, because in the end, it was a simple case of who wanted it more.For Nico Paz himself, the choice is tantalising. Does he join a Fenerbahçe side built in Mourinho's image, a team that will demand defensive responsibility and tactical discipline Or does he lean into the more fluid, expressive football that Fabregas promised Right now, the answer is wearing a tracksuit and shouting instructions from the touchline. Mourinho has made his decision. The rest of them are just living in it.
