3 thoughts from Mastantono: Will you talk to Mbappe about the Qatar World Cup final?

In February of this year, Franco Mastantono was also a substitute player for the Argentina U20 national team and competed with the team in the South American Championship for this age group. A few months later, after emerging at River Plate, he joined Real Madrid as a major signing. Not only did he become the main force of the team, he was also working hard to compete in the 2026 World Cup.

"When I was at River Plate, I had just been promoted from the youth academy. The span from the seventh tier to the first team was actually larger because I was used to playing with players of the same age. Now that I have come to Real Madrid, I feel that I am ready for this higher level of football - Although it is very difficult, after all, it is not easy to join a giant like Real Madrid, but I feel comfortable in the team, and the confidence brought by the national team competition has saved me a lot of detours."

"Mbappe is very friendly to me. He is not only an incredible player, but also a very good person. We have never talked about the World Cup finals, but we often talk about the situation of our respective national teams. We often talk about football in the Real Madrid locker room."

"Messi must be ranked first. Bellingham also impressed me deeply. He is a very good player, especially in training. You can see that he is different from others. There are also many excellent teammates in the national team, such as Alvarez—— I played against him in La Liga, and his current form is so good... and his teammates at River Plate, Alvarez is definitely one of the top players in the world."
