Real Madrid is really close to the South American star player, who is incredibly cheap.

Real Madrid is still looking hard for other talented players, even though they have signed Kylian Mbappe and Endrick. A report from MARCA says that Real Madrid is very close to signing Franco Mastantuono from River Plate.

Real Madrid has offered 25 million euros for the young star player, who is wanted by many teams in Europe. Talks between the two clubs have started.

Santiago Solari, a former player for Real Madrid, is helping to make this deal happen. This young player has been offered better deals by other teams, but he is still set on joining Real Madrid. The price Mastantuono has to pay to get out of his deal is known to be around 45 million euros.

Also, Toni Kroos’s departure will make it possible for a new deal to be made. To replace Kroos, Mastantuono will, of course, need to continue to grow for many more years. He is not yet 16. In the past, though, this strategy worked well for Real Madrid, as shown by the Endrick deal.

Even though Mastantuono can play in La Liga at 16, Real Madrid is expected to let him stay in Argentina for a few more years.
