Real Madrid Confidencial Juni Calafat secures 2 gems in one swoop, Mastantuono and another star for Madrid
Juni Calafat does it again and is about to sign Mastantuono and another star who is aiming for the top
Real Madrid keeps strengthening their commitment to young talent and has done it again with two strategic moves in the market. Juni Calafat, the club's chief scout, has practically finalized the signing of two gems expected to define an era.
While Franco Mastantuono is finalizing details to become the new white player, Abdellah Ouazane's arrival has also been set in motion, another name identified by the club as an investment for the future. Both deals are practically closed, according to recent reports, and confirm Real Madrid's firm intention to secure their long-term project.
Mastantuono has already turned down higher offers like PSG's in order to fulfill his dream of wearing white. Meanwhile, Abdellah Ouazane has convinced the white scouts with his performance and potential.
The goal besides Mastantuono
Ouazane is a center forward and has stood out in Ajax's youth teams, where he has drawn attention for his physical strength, finishing ability, and maturity despite his young age. This is a bet for the future that has been made with other names and, together with Mastantuono, they could complement each other in the medium and long term in key positions both in attack and in midfield.
He is 16 years old, but Real Madrid is already working to bring him in because they see an extremely promising future in him. With these two signings, Real Madrid confirms that the model started with Vinicius, Rodrygo, or Endrick is not an exception, but a strategic line.
The idea is to tie down the best talents in the world before their value skyrockets, allowing for controlled development within the white ecosystem. Calafat has been key once again, moving ahead of time and with discretion.
Long-term planning
We don't know if Mastantuono and Ouazane will join the first team directly, but the idea is to integrate them progressively in Valdebebas with Xabi's judgment as a turning point to assess their progress in the team. Real Madrid sees them as safe bets who can thrive within their structure. Two more gems in the white showcase for the future, signed by the same architect: Juni Calafat.
