Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Real Madrid attacker Franco Mastantuono during the summer transfer window.
According to a report from Spain, the La Liga outfit is open to sending the player out on loan to the London club so that he can continue his development with regular football. He has struggled for regular opportunities at Real Madrid.
Mastantuono needs game time
He needs to play more often in order to fulfil his potential. The move to Tottenham could be ideal for the young attacker. Regular football in England could bring out the best in him and help him develop further.
The report claims that Tottenham is prepared to sign the player on loan for one year, with no obligation to buy. Real Madrid does not want to lose the player permanently. They view him as a mercurial talent with a bright future at the club. The loan move could be ideal for all parties.
Spurs move could be ideal for Franco Mastantuono
Tottenham need more creativity and technical ability in the final third, and the 18-year-old could be the ideal acquisition for them in the short term.
Mastantuono can operate as the right winger as well as a central attacking midfielder. He will help create opportunities for his teammates and score goals.
The 18-year-old has played just over 1,000 minutes in La Liga and has scored three goals in all competitions. He needs more opportunities to showcase his qualities at the highest level. Regular football will bring out the best in him and accelerate his development. He could develop into a star for Real Madrid in future. However, they must handle his development carefully. Mastantuono has been hailed as a player with an “incredible future” by Xabi Alonso.
A loan move this summer would be ideal for all parties, and it remains to be seen whether the two clubs can get the deal done.
