Eduardo Inda's warning about Mastantuono: this is why they have to sign the Argentine

It hasn't been made official yet, but everything indicates that Franco Mastantuono will become a merengue signing. He'll join Huijsen and Alexander Arnold, who have already been announced. During the upcoming week, the same should happen with the Argentine footballer.

Unknown to many, the truth is that he's a player they've been tracking for some time. That's why, in Eduardo Inda's newspaper, they've explained why Mastantuono should be signed. He's a player who'll be more important than what he can contribute on the field.

He's the latest talent to emerge from Argentine soccer, and they're calling him a generational signing. It's a bet on a young man with a bright future ahead and a lot of skill with the ball at his feet. Without a doubt, it's a great move considering the level he's already shown at 17 years old.

But it also means having an Argentine in the merengue squad again. Meanwhile, in basketball, the team is being built around Campazzo and Deck, but that wasn't the case in soccer. Since Di María's departure there hasn't been any presence from the albiceleste in Real Madrid.

Open a new market and compete with rivals

In recent years, Real Madrid have clearly bet on Brazilian footballers. The attempts to sign Argentines, Julián Álvarez or Claudio Echeverri, had failed. But having someone from the current world champion seemed necessary.

This will change with Mastantuono, a player who's already under Scaloni's orders in the senior team. At just 17 years old, he ensures Real Madrid's presence for a long time. The intention is to start changing the trend of recent years.

In Argentina, Barça had a huge following thanks to Messi, so many years at the culé club. Atlético have a group of footballers from that country led by Simeone on the bench. Now Real Madrid will be able to compete with them by opening a new market.
