Real Madrid Secures Argentine Wonderkid Seen as Messi’s Successor

According to Fabrizio Romano, Franco Mastantuono — the 17-year-old Argentine wonderkid — has completed his medical tests at Real Madrid today.

The young player who is being dubbed as Lionel Messi’s successor will sign a contract until 2031 with Los Blancos.

Real Madrid had to spend 45 million euros — equivalent to 840 billion rupiah — to activate the release clause of the River Plate player.

The Argentine club had no option to retain their young talent — after Real Madrid agreed to pay the release clause amount stated in his contract.
