Franco Mastantuono hailed new Real Madrid manager Álvaro Arbeloa for giving him the confidence which was not always present under former boss Xabi Alonso.
The €45 million ($53.8 million) summer signing has already netted twice under Arbeloa, doubling his tally from Alonso’s tenure in 13 fewer games, and admitted he was “totally grateful” to the new manager for allowing him to “play more freely.”
