Real Madrid is seeking to strengthen its ranks by signing strong and distinguished players in preparation for the upcoming competitions under the leadership of Italian Carlo Ancelotti.
According to the Spanish newspaper “Mundo Deportivo”, Real has made contact with River Plate to discuss the possibility of including the player Franco Mastantuono, and integrating him into the first team when he reaches maturity in 2025, in a formula similar to what happened with Endrik and Vinicius.
The report continued that the young Argentine playmaker, who is good at playing with the left foot, became the youngest player to score for his team’s jersey last February, at the age of 16 years, 5 months and 24 days, surpassing the previous record set by Javier Saviola.
The report indicated that Mastantuno has proven his ability to play multiple roles since his participation with the team, as he can play in any attacking position in the midfield and can also play as an outright striker.
The newspaper explained that Real Madrid wants to follow the method of including Vinicius with Mastanto, as it is looking to include him when he reaches the age of 18 in 2025.
It is expected that Real’s mission will be very difficult to include the young star, as many other clubs are following him, led by Barcelona, Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund, Benfica, Inter and Paris Saint-Germain, but the chances of the Merengue are the strongest at the present time.
