Real Madrid Sets Sights on Argentina's Next Jewel
Franco Mastantuono, a 16-year-old player from River Plate, has attracted interest in Europe, especially from the mighty Real Madrid, who are closely monitoring him to make a move and secure the Argentine gem.
The millionaires have set his release clause at 45 million dollars, activating a plan to receive a substantial amount of money, following Claudio "El Diablito" Echeverrí departure to Manchester City.
The key to the young guru's signing might not hinge on his "European blood" with Italian family ties, allowing him to join any European team without waiting until he turns 18, thanks to this family link, as per FIFA statutes.
Real Madrid won't lose track of this upcoming star who has already made waves in the first team and shone in the youth classic against Boca Juniors, scoring a goal. Will Real Madrid seal the deal for this great upcoming talent?
