The player has shown excitement about playing the Club World Cup with River Plate despite his signing by Real Madrid

Franco Mastantuono is now a new Real Madrid player. The young Argentine talent has signed his contract with the club until 2031. His arrival is scheduled for August 15, when he turns 18 years old.

The agreement between Real Madrid and River Plate includes the full payment of the player's release clause: 45 million dollars, about 40 million euros. In addition, the club will pay nearly five million more in taxes. This move strengthens the good relationship between both clubs.

Last dance with River

Before landing in Madrid, Mastantuono has a clear goal: to say goodbye to River Plate in the best possible way. The Argentine club is traveling tonight to the United States to prepare for the Club World Cup. There, the midfielder will try to leave his mark in his last competition wearing the red band jersey.

A fan asked him in the last few hours: "Are you happy to play the Club World Cup with River?" Mastantuono's answer was short but forceful: "Always". This word reflects his love for River and his commitment to the team until the end.

The young player wants to close his time in Argentine soccer with an important title. For him, there's no better way to say goodbye than by fighting for the Club World Cup. His dream has always been to become a legend of the club. This could be his big opportunity.

Madrid is already waiting for him

In Valdebebas, they're ready to welcome one of the greatest prospects in South American soccer. Real Madrid is making a long-term bet on Mastantuono, one of the most followed young players on the continent. With a contract until 2031, the club trusts his potential.

The Argentine, left-footed and with great vision, has shined at River despite his young age. His maturity and talent have convinced Madrid's coaches, who see him as an investment for both the present and the future.

August 15 will mark the beginning of a new chapter for Mastantuono. Before that, he wants to make history with River. The Club World Cup will be his last performance at home. He promises to give everything on the field.
