Real Madrid Confidencial Better than Doué, the 17-year-old star Real Madrid wants to steal from PSG
Mastantuono is the prospect everyone wants, and PSG have already started initial talks to snatch him from Real Madrid
Franco Mastantuono is the new name shaking up the market. At just 17 years old, the River Plate midfielder has become one of the great gems of South American soccer. His name is now making waves both in Paris and Madrid.
PSG has already made a move. According to journalist Germán García Grova, the French club has started talks with the player's camp.
There's no agreement yet, but talks are underway. The goal: get ahead of everyone and secure his signing as soon as possible.
But Real Madrid doesn't plan to sit idly by. Juni Calafat has closely followed Mastantuono in recent months.
They see him as a strategic investment for the future. They're seriously considering the possibility of going after him. His release clause is around €45 million, a high figure (about €45 million), but manageable for Europe's giants.
A meteoric rise at River
He has earned a spot in River's starting eleven and has already played key matches in Copa Libertadores. His maturity is surprising. His talent is evident.
Compared in Argentina to stars like Enzo Fernández or Alexis Mac Allister, Mastantuono stands out for his vision, technique, and ability to lead from midfield. Despite his young age, he plays with composure and makes decisions like a veteran.
Scaloni calls him, Europe fights for him
The interest from major clubs hasn't gone unnoticed by AFA. Lionel Scaloni, coach of the Argentine national team, has decided to include him in his preliminary list for the upcoming friendlies. A move that confirms his international projection.
Madrid want to repeat a move similar to Endrick's or Vinícius's. Secure a global talent early before his price skyrockets. Mastantuono fits that profile.
In Paris, however, they're determined to win this race. They know time is key and could speed things up in the coming weeks.
Franco Mastantuono, at 17 years old, is already on the radar of European giants. His future could be decided very soon. The battle between Real Madrid and PSG has begun.
