Alvaro Morata has urged Nico Paz not to leave Como too soon.
Real Madrid boast a buy-back option for the Argentina midfielder and is expected to trigger it in 2026.
Morata, also a former Real player, admits he's talking regularly with his young teammate about his future.
On what he's told Paz, Morata revealed to Sky Italia: "Take Como to Europe and then go where your heart takes you. I've already spoken about him many times, perhaps too much."
Morata also discussed Como coach and former Spain teammate Cesc Fabregas.
"We shared great moments on and off the pitch. I have great admiration for him. He knows me and I know him. He did things that other normal players didn't do. That can only help us."
