Real Madrid's transfer strategy has revolved around discovering and signing the greatest adolescents in the world, particularly from Latin America, and it looks that 17-year-old Argentine phenom Franco Mastantuono is the latest to be targeted. However, there have been no discussions between the two teams about him.
According to sources in the Spanish city, the 17-year-old has reached an agreement with Real Madrid and has decided to move to the Santiago Bernabeu. Further sources suggested that Los Blancos had also made a €25 million approach for Mastantuono, but River Plate President Jorge Brito has dismissed that notion."I can promise you that there were no negotiations with Real Madrid for Franco Mastantuono. Neither with Florentino Perez, nor with anyone. It was a meeting for different reasons. "The player is very calm and happy at River," Brito told ESPN, as reported by Diario AS.
"We believe there is no reason to expedite this process. At 17 years old, he is fully developed. Neither the player nor we have no issue with him departing. I believe we must value him and recognize that we have a great treasure who will undoubtedly kill it when the time comes to depart. It's time for him to think about River."
Mastantuono's contract runs until the end of 2026, with a €45 million release clause that escalates to €50 million in the final 10 days of the transfer window. Real Madrid would have no reason to pursue him at this time. If Real Madrid does decide to engage with River, it appears unlikely that they will wait too long, as El Millionario will not want their youngster to enter the final year of his contract and risk a lower fee.
