Didac Aguirre Why does Mastantuono wear a Castilla jersey number: Konaté involved
The reason why Mastantuono has a Castilla jersey number and opens the door to Konaté
The arrival of a top-level footballer like Franco Mastantuono has Madridists absolutely desperate to see him on the field. However, the most recent news regarding his addition has been surprising, as he will wear a Real Madrid Castilla squad number. Some speculate that this has to do with the possibility of signing Ibrahima Konaté and that they need this spot in the first team.
With this in mind, we would be talking about a new addition to the defensive sector that could be decisive. Additionally, the player could wear a number he already had during his time at River Plate. Everything seems to fit this narrative and it's only a matter of time before we know whether this is the decision or not.
He will wear a reserve team number
This way, it has been confirmed that the Argentine footballer will wear number 30 on his back, thus being registered with the reserve team. The player has already been presented with the team, so it's now a reality that he is part of the institution. However, there is this factor that will have him registered with the reserve team.
The arrival of a footballer with the Frenchman's characteristics would be very good for the team's central defense. Additionally, it should be noted that he has only one year left on his contract, so his addition could be very economical. Liverpool seems to have learned its lesson with Alexander Arnold, then letting the footballer leave even at a low cost.
With this, Alonso could have a much more versatile defensive profile than some of the others currently in the squad. Additionally, he could count on a center-back who has managed to stand out in what many consider the most competitive league in the world.
Everything has a reason
The surprise was huge upon learning the Argentine's squad number, but everything seems to indicate that the reasons are obvious and coherent. With this in mind, it's only a matter of time before we know whether this is the roadmap the club wants. Although this could also depend on the possibility of certain departures from the squad.
