Real Madrid set eyes on a 16-year-old Argentinian midfielder

Amid the hype of Kylian Mbappe’s arrival in Real Madrid, the Spanish capital side set eyes on another potential superstar. Reports suggested that the Los Blancos’ board members are considering the possibility of signing Franco Mastantuono from River Plate.

It appears that Madrid started to relinquish their Galactico-oriented kind of approach in searching for a player. Instead, El Real aims for potential young players from around the world, especially South America. 

Not just long ago, Madrid signed a Brazilian youngster Endrick from Palmeiras. The season before, a Turk sensation Arda Guller joined Madrid’s posh squad and he started to show his worth during the Euro 2024. 

Madrid is reportedly to start deeper talks in signing Mastantuono as soon as possible. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano mentioned that the club’s scouring department have already given the green light to go after the player. (source: Fabrizio Romano)
