Indeed, the Reds are prepared to activate the release clause for the young midfielder, who is being hailed as one of Argentina’s most promising talents, leading to interest from Real Madrid and Barcelona.
There have also been mentions of Paris Saint-Germain keeping Mastantuono on their radar. However, it now appears that Liverpool might be ahead of the pack.
As per the report, Liverpool could pay the $45 million release clause that is embedded in Mastantuono’s contract with River Plate. The figure is said to rise to $50 million in the final weeks of the transfer window.
Both Real Madrid and Barcelona have been scouting Mastantuono, but as has been previously reported, Los Blancos have reservations about shelling out such a big figure for the 17-year-old while the Blaugrana are not in a strong enough position financially to do so.
