Real Madrid Boosted in Battle for Rising Star
Real Madrid Secures Chance to Sign Franco Mastantuono
Real Madrid was in a precarious position as Paris Saint-Germain made a move to acquire Argentine talent Franco Mastantuono. PSG was ready to meet River Plate’s €45m release clause for Mastantuono, putting Real Madrid at risk of losing out on the promising player. However, Real Madrid’s swift reaction has turned the tables in their favor.
Real Madrid’s Negotiation Strategy
Initially hesitant to match PSG’s offer, Real Madrid has re-entered talks with River Plate and Mastantuono after a period of silence. This sudden change in approach has been influenced by Mastantuono’s decision to prioritize a move to the Santiago Bernabeu over PSG. The player’s desire to fulfill a childhood dream has added a new dimension to the transfer saga.
Real Madrid’s Strategic Move
Recent reports suggested that Real Madrid had initially halted their pursuit of Mastantuono following his contract renewal with River Plate. The insertion of a €45m release clause seemed to complicate negotiations. Real Madrid had hoped that Mastantuono’s contract would expire, giving them leverage in future talks.
The Role of Transfer Guru in Real Madrid’s Reversal
PSG’s interest in Mastantuono reignited Real Madrid’s pursuit of the player, with Head Scout Juni Calafat playing a pivotal role in convincing the club to re-engage in negotiations. Calafat’s expertise and influence have been instrumental in Real Madrid’s decision to pursue Mastantuono once again.
