There's less and less time left before Franco Mastantuono finally becomes a Real Madrid player.

Through these words on his X account, Ramón de Mon has also confirmed that August 14 will be the day of his presentation. "Once he turns 18, he'll join the group," he added. Since Mastantuono is 17 years old, just like several players signed by the club in the past, he'll have to wait until he turns 18.

After a great spell at River Plate, Mastantuono is ready to play for Real Madrid. A dream come true and a real challenge for the native of Azul, Argentina. Madridism is finally close to seeing Mastantuono wearing white.

The wait for Mastantuono

Trained in River Plate's youth academy, Franco Mastantuono made the jump to the first team in January 2024. An important step that, despite his age, didn't pose a problem for the young right winger. With unmatched talent, Mastantuono managed, just last season, 7 goals and 4 assists with River Plate.

Numbers that show why he's considered one of the greatest promises in soccer. His performance in the Club World Cup also gave people plenty to talk about. In the 4 hr. 24 min. (264 min.) of play he managed to get, Mastantuono was River Plate's best player.

His signing for Real Madrid will provide Xabi Alonso with a very talented striker. The right winger will have a player who guarantees a great present and future for the team. His imminent arrival is important for Mastantuono to start adapting to Real Madrid's style.

Everything ready for the welcome

Before the start of the Club World Cup, Real Madrid managed to finalize Mastantuono's signing. Although the Argentine played the World Cup with River Plate, this wasn't a problem for Real Madrid. The club, throughout all these weeks, has prepared the Argentine's presentation better than ever.
