Chelsea, Real Madrid, and Barcelona all have their eyes on an Argentinean youngster (not in picture)
Chelsea are working to beat Real Madrid and Barcelona in the race to sign Franco Mastantuono, according to TEAMTALK. The Argentinean teenager has earned admirers at multiple clubs worldwide following a string of impressive outings for River Plate.
Considered one of the brightest young talents in the country, Mastantuono reportedly has a £38m release clause in his contract. Interestingly, the release clause could rise to £43m by the end of the window.
The Argentinean club are not eager to let the 17-year-old go this month but remain open to his departure later this year. Mastantuono registered three goals and three assists from 41 games for the senior side last season.
