Franco Mastantuono could already be heading for the exit door at Real Madrid. Signed for €45 million last summer, the young Argentine has struggled to make an impact during his first season in Spain and has reportedly failed to convince the club’s decision-makers.
According to ESPN, River Plate are interested in bringing their former wonderkid back on loan. The Argentine club is closely monitoring the situation of the 18-year-old attacking midfielder and dreams of helping him revive his career in familiar surroundings.

The big question now is whether Real Madrid are willing to approve a temporary departure. The Spanish giants still believe in the player’s long-term potential, but a loan spell could be the ideal solution to help him regain confidence and secure regular playing time.
