Franco Mastantuono, a 17-year-old attacking midfielder under contract to River Plate until December 2026, is a new talent in Argentine soccer. He has joined the long list of players rumoured to be in the sights of Paris Saint-Germain this summer. TyC Sports claims that the Parisian club wants to activate the clause. The player would like to stay at River Plate until December, which the Parisian club agrees with. The lights are green.
“PSG plan to activate Franco Mastantuono’s clause (€45M)!
Of all the teams interested in the River jewel, PSG is the only one not scared off by the price!
Mastantuono has given his word and intends to stay at River Plate until December this year. PSG agrees!“
Given the high price tag, Real Madrid have decided to put the matter on hold. The door is now wide open to PSG, who are ready to sign him as soon as possible.
One thing is certain: PSG are on the trail of a player who promises a lot. Mind you, that doesn’t mean he’ll necessarily become a great player, but it’s a gamble on a great nugget. We know that Luis Campos likes to look for very strong young players, and Luis Enrique often manages to transform them. Now we’ll have to wait and see if this rumor takes off, because in the mercato, nothing is ever written in advance. You need official data to be able to project yourself, which is not yet the case.
