Last month, a report revealed that Paris Saint-Germain have made River Plate’s Franco Mastantuono their top target and are prepared to trigger his €40 million release clause. However, this fee could rise to €45 million during the final ten days of any transfer window.

This 2024 season, Mastantuono has made 38 appearances across all competitions for River Plate, scoring four goals and recording three assists.
