River has in Franco Mastantuono another of the many diamonds in the rough that it usually produces throughout its history. The club’s youth teams sheltered the footballers who now, at 16 years old, have the interest not only of Barcelona in Spain but also of Manchester United in England. That is why it is relevant to know what the exit clause is for a possible departure in the future.
Currently, Mastantuono has a clause of 30 million euros in case they want to take him and the club is not willing to sell him. However, that same clause amounts to 35 million euros if the operation takes place within the last 10 days. of the corresponding transfer market. Can River keep him?
River wants to shield Mastantuono
In that sense, the Millionaire has already put the first step to increase the price of an eventual unwanted departure and also prolong the time of stay at the club. As for his clause, they want to make this figure the highest in Argentine football and in that sense it is worth remembering that the one who has it is his teammate, Rodrigo Villagra, with 40 million euros.
Until when would Franco Mastantuono’s new contract be at River?
The idea that River has is to carry Franco Mastantuono’s contract, which expires in December 2025, until at least December 2026 or 2027. This implies contemplating the possibility of him playing for the club until he is 18 or 19 years old and in any case letting him go for a high figure, such as more than 40 million euros. To this end, of course, the player will also be accompanied with a better salary in the squad.
What do Barcelona fans say regarding Mastantuono?
“Great but the same as always: either it arrives in 2025 free or it won’t arrive”; “Argentina is the only country that takes care of 10 people for a lifetime, what a generation of hookups it has”; “He has some great things, but honestly, Barcelona should look at his youth team before paying 30 million.” These are just some examples of the moods of Barcelona fans regarding Mastantuono.
The vast majority of the conclusions are the same: they fear that Barcelona will be “put to sleep” with their signing as happened with Echeverri and Manchester City. On the other hand, there are also detractors regarding his hiring, especially due to the question that said club should pay regarding 30 to 35 million euros for River’s jewel: “Waste of time and money, we cannot compete…”.
