Galactic contract: the clause Florentino will have Franco Mastantuono sign
Real Madrid will set a surreal clause for the Argentine to prevent his departure to other clubs
Franco Mastantuono will be a new Real Madrid player in a matter of hours. The agreement with River Plate is completely finalized, and only the official announcement remains.
The deal will be closed for 40 million, a figure slightly lower than the 45 million set in the young Argentine's release clause. River Plate accepted a five million reduction in exchange for a key condition: they'll be able to count on Mastantuono to play in the 2025 Club World Cup, which will be held in July. This is a strategic move by the Whites to secure the signing, although the midfielder will join later than expected.

The clause that Franco Mastantuono will have at Real Madrid
Franco Mastantuono will sign a contract with Real Madrid for six seasons, valid until 2031. This agreement represents the maximum duration allowed by FIFA regulations for footballers under 18 years old.
In addition, according to the announcement by "DSports", Real Madrid has protected the player with a release clause of 1 billion euros. This is an amount that'll prevent other clubs from acquiring the footballer's services without first speaking with the club.
Real Madrid seeks to keep its investment safe and avoid possible external interests, making it clear that this is a major commitment.
His salary won't be so remarkable
Regarding his salary, Franco Mastantuono will receive a wage in the middle range of Real Madrid's salary scale. According to the latest information, the Argentine will have an annual salary ranging between 4 and 5 million euros.
Although this is a high amount for a 17-year-old player, it aligns with his market value and potential. The club seeks to balance trust in his talent with its internal salary policy.

In addition, since he holds both Argentine and Italian citizenship, he won't occupy a non-EU spot. This is another positive point in the sports planning of the Whites.
Once again, Real Madrid follows its usual formula. Florentino Pérez brings in young talent, secures their commitment with long-term contracts, and manages a gradual and controlled transition to the first team.
The contract conditions reflect the club's conviction in the Argentine midfielder. The future of Franco Mastantuono is already clearly written in white.
