Envoys from Real Madrid went to Buenos Aires, to follow the development of a group of young players there, led by Mastantuno, who has so far played 9 matches with the “Millionaires” first team
The newspaper highlighted that the left-handed midfielder is currently breaking records at River Plate, which prompted the Argentine club to improve his contract (expires on June 30, 2026) and raise the release clause to 45 million euros
Now the race is on to secure the signature of a player, who is still only 16 years old and will not be able to reach Europe before the summer of 2026
Mastantuno became the youngest player to score in a River Plate shirt, at the age of 16 years, 5 months and 24 days, surpassing the previous record set by Javier Saviola, when he was 16 years, 10 months and 7 days, in 1998
