One of the young hopes of the Argentine national team and River Plate, Franco Mastantuono, is currently being watched by a number of leading European clubs. The 17-year-old midfielder has been the subject of much speculation in recent weeks, especially among Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.
It turns out that Franco had always wanted to go to Europe, and his dream club was Real Madrid. However, although Madrid was interested in the young talent, they did not take a firm step towards officially inviting him.
Mastantuono could not wait
According to Diario AS, Franco Mastantuono, who had been waiting for an official offer from Real Madrid for a long time, finally ran out of patience and decided to continue his career in another direction. According to the source, the current winner of the European Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain, is on the verge of adding the player to its squad.
PSG have become one of the clubs that has been collecting young talents in recent years, and Franco's transfer could be part of this policy.
Price and contract clauses
According to the Transfermarkt portal, Franco Mastantuono's market value is currently estimated at around 15 million euros. However, according to the contract with River Plate, the club that wants to buy him must pay at least 45 million euros for the transfer.
This amount may have made many big clubs hesitate, but for PSG such investments have become the new normal. The French champions seem to have made a firm decision to attract a prodigy who has already shown great ability at this age.
Who is Franco?
Mastantuono is capable of playing in various positions in the main team of River Plate. He has gained the trust of coaches not only in the center, but also on the wings, thanks to his freedom to move. This young talent, who has matured in the Argentine football academy, is seen by many experts as a future leader of the national team.
