Real Madrid staff are not looking at 17-year-old Franco Mastantuono as a signing for the future and are instead reported to be prepared to hand him a major role in the first team this coming season.
Madrid confirmed in June that they had won the race to sign Mastantuono from River Plate, spending big money to land the attacking midfielder ahead of his 18th birthday on August 14, when his contract with Los Blancos will begin.
