Real Madrid are reportedly considering allowing Franco Mastantuono to leave the club, as discussions grow around the need for an intermediate step in his development.

Despite the internal belief in Mastantuono’s undeniable talent, the midfielder has found opportunities limited this season, registering just 818 minutes across all competitions. This has prompted conversations within the club about whether a temporary move elsewhere could better support his growth.

According to reports from Marca, the final decision will rest with the player. Mastantuono will have the option to remain at the Santiago Bernabéu and fight for his place in the squad or seek regular playing time away from the club.

Real Madrid’s approach reflects a long-term view on the youngster’s development, balancing immediate competition within the squad with the need for consistent minutes at a crucial stage in his career.
