Atletico Madrid are determined to sign Franco Mastantuono from River Plate this summer, after the Club World Cup. With a series of impressive performances under his belt, Mastantuono has caught the attention of several top clubs, but Atletico Madrid seems to be leading the charge.
Diego Simeone, Atletico’s head coach, is convinced that Mastantuono is exactly the type of player they need for both the immediate future and the long-term prospects of the 2025/26 season. His tactical versatility and ability to perform under pressure make him an ideal fit for Simeone’s playing style.
In a proactive approach, two representatives from Atletico Madrid will be in attendance at the Estadio Monumental this Saturday to closely observe the match between River Plate and Rosario Central. Their primary focus will be on Mastantuono, as he has been identified as their top target for the upcoming transfer window. The club’s management is keen to finalize a deal that would bolster their squad significantly.
Atletico Madrid is going all in to secure Mastantuono’s signature. They are reportedly planning to submit an offer in the region of €30 million. While this is a substantial bid, it’s notably lower than his release clause of €50 million. As the clock ticks down, the negotiation strategies and the willingness of both clubs to come to an agreement will play a crucial role in determining whether Mastantuono will don Atletico’s colors next season. Such a signing would not only enhance the team but also reflect their ambition to compete at the highest level in both domestic and international competitions.
