Manchester United are looking to beat Real Madrid to yet another young generational talent after the hijacking of Leny Yoro from LOCS Lille last summer.
Yoro looked set for a move to the Santiago Bernabeu, however last minute, United swept in and lured the 18-year-old centre-back to Old Trafford where he’s established himself as a routine starter under Ruben Amorim.
Now, United are looking to swoop for another of Marid’s target’s as their negotiations have fallen through.
The pair of European giants, as well as many others, have been closely watching River Plate’s Franco Mastantuono with the aim of bringing him to Europe in the summer.
However, a seemingly set move to the Spanish capital fell through, leaving the door open for Manchester United.

Manchester United look to trigger release clause for Franco Mastantuono
Tribal Football has now revealed that The Red Devils are looking to trigger the 17-year-old’s £38 million release clause to bring him to Old Trafford at the end of the season.
Mastantuono has already registered 53 appearances across two seasons for River Plate, with six goals and five assists playing in attacking midfield and on the right wing.
His versatility is an incredible asset which Ruben Amorim is keen to secure at Old Trafford for the future of Manchester United, with other youngsters like Chris Rigg and Jobe Bellingham also being scouted for the future of the club.
If United can seal a move for the Argentine, it’ll be yet another huge statement signing for the club to go along with Yoro, Patrick Dorgu, Ayden Heaven and Chido Obi, lining up United’s path back to their winning ways.
