Real Madrid completes 46 million euro deal

Real Madrid continued to show their influence in the transfer market when they completed the deal to recruit Argentine prodigy Franco Mastantuono in just 96 hours of negotiation.

Franco Mastantuono is about to join Real Madrid.

According to AS , the deal will be officially announced next week.

Franco Mastantuono (born in 2007 in Azul) will join the Santiago Bernabeu team with a contract until 2031. River Plate - the player's home club - will earn about 46 million euros, including the contract release fee and additional fees.

Initially, the two sides considered letting Mastantuono stay in Argentina until December. However, Real Madrid want to speed up the integration process for the 17-year-old, and according to the current plan, he will arrive in Madrid in August, immediately after the end of the Club World Cup.

Behind this express deal was the strong imprint of Juni Calafat - Head of International Scouting - and General Director José Ángel Sánchez. Both flew directly to Buenos Aires to negotiate with River Plate and Mastantuono's representatives.

As a result, Real Madrid surpassed a series of rivals, most notably Paris Saint-Germain, where coach Luis Enrique really wanted the young star's signature.

For Mastantuono, the dream has always been to wear the Real Madrid shirt.

For Mastantuono, the dream has always been to play for Real Madrid. He has proactively stopped all other negotiations to focus on the deal with the Spanish Royal team. This is a clear message from one of the brightest talents that the River Plate academy has produced in many years.

Initially, Mastantuono hoped to conquer the Copa Libertadores with River Plate before moving to Europe. But Real Madrid, recognizing the young midfielder's outstanding technical potential, decided to bring him to Spain as soon as possible to begin the process of adapting to the top European football environment.

Next August, Mastantuono will turn 18 - and that will also mark a major turning point in the young player's career, when he officially plays for the most successful club in Champions League history.

Another deal that demonstrates Real Madrid's long-term investment strategy and keen vision in hunting and developing precious gems around the globe.
