The report revealed that Alonso planned to give the young Argentinian player as soon as possible, as he said: “Xabi Alonso wants to put Franco Mastantono as a base in the team as quickly as possible.”

The newspaper added that the case could actually be done quickly, explaining that this could happen tomorrow against Osasuna, which opens the door to an early participation of the player who is considered a promising talent in the midfield.

Mastantono officially moved to Real Madrid this summer after signing the transfer contracts as soon as he has reached the age of eighteen, and despite his young age, Alonso quickly seeks to take advantage of his technical capacities due to the team’s need to strengthen the midfield.
