Franco Mastantuono will become a Real Madrid player in a matter of hours. The agreement with River Plate is already closed and only the official confirmation remains.

The club will pay €40 million for the transfer. The young Argentine's release clause was €45 million, but River accepted a reduction of five.

The reason: the Argentine club will be able to count on Mastantuono to play in the 2025 Club World Cup, which will be held in July. This is a strategic concession by Real Madrid to finalize the signing.

Signs until 2031 with record clause

The contract Mastantuono will sign with Real Madrid will be for six years, valid until 2031. This is the maximum allowed for contracts with players under 18 according to FIFA regulations.

In addition, the club has secured him with a €500 million release clause. This figure is identical to that of other major club prospects, such as Jude Bellingham or Vinícius in their day.

Real Madrid wants to protect their investment and avoid possible outside temptations. This is a clear bet on both the present and the future.

Mid-level salary in the club's scale

Regarding his salary, Mastantuono will have a mid-level wage within Real Madrid's salary scale. He will earn between €4 million and €5 million per season.

This is a high figure for a 17-year-old player, but it matches his market value and projection. The club has sought a balance between trust in his talent and their internal salary policy.

The player has dual Argentine and Italian nationality, so he won't take up a non-EU spot. This is another advantage in the club's sports planning.

With this move, Real Madrid secure one of the most promising young footballers in South American soccer. Mastantuono has already debuted with the Argentina senior national team and has shined with River Plate.

The club is repeating their formula: sign precocious talent, secure them long-term, and facilitate a controlled transition to the first team.
The contract figures confirm the firm commitment to the Argentine midfielder. Mastantuono's future is already set in white.
