On the lookout for promising young talents on the market, Paris Saint-Germain has spotted a crack player in Argentina. Like many European big names, the capital club is closely following River Plate attacking midfielder Franco Mastantuono. A concrete offer could be sent this winter.
Despite the criticism, Paris Saint-Germain firmly believes in its project. The club led by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi suffered too many failures by relying mainly on stars. It is therefore with a rejuvenated and less bling-bling squad that the Parisians hope to reach the heights in a few years, even if it means going through complicated moments at first. This winter, the Ile-de-France management should not change its plans. She could again rely on a young talent who is completely inexperienced at the highest level.

The Argentine press actually places Paris Saint-Germain in the footsteps of Franco Mastantuono (17 years old). The River Plate attacking midfielder caught the eye of the reigning French champion. And for good reason, the Argentinian is already considered one of the most promising young people in South America. It is no coincidence that many European big names have been following him for several months. FC Barcelona, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City and especially Real Madrid have been cited among his courtiers.
Franco Mastantuono was even announced very close to the White House this summer, before the denial of the president of River Plate. It is true that it is difficult to imagine Franco Mastantuono taking the gamble in the Spanish capital where young Endrick and Arda Güler are having great difficulty getting playing time. Perhaps an advantage for Paris Saint-Germain who, 'according to the media River Noticias, could send a concrete offer this winter. Note that the Argentinian U20 international is linked to River Plate until December 2026, via a contract containing a release clause of 45 million euros.
