Fiorentina Favourites for Mastantuono Loan Agreement with Real Madrid

FolioPitch.com – 24 July 2026 | The summer transfer window is just around the corner, and football fans are eagerly awaiting the latest developments in the transfer market. One of the most intriguing stories emerging from the Spanish capital is the potential loan agreement between Real Madrid and Fiorentina for the talented Argentine midfielder, Franco Mastantuono.

Mastantuono, who will turn 19 next month, has struggled to make a significant impact at Real Madrid, despite his impressive performances in the youth teams. With the plan to let him gain experience of European football, the Spanish giants are reportedly considering loaning him out to one of several top teams across Europe.

According to TyC Sports and Diario AS, Fiorentina are the favourites to secure Mastantuono on a dry loan, meaning there is no option to make it permanent. This would be a significant coup for the Italian club, who have been actively seeking to strengthen their midfield.

The opportunity for Fiorentina to discuss the matter with Real Madrid will arise when the two teams meet in a friendly match in Austria on August 1. This may also be inspired by the impressive growth of fellow Argentina international Nico Paz at Como, although that has turned into a form of co-ownership deal.

Mastantuono, who has Italian heritage, would not be taking up a non-EU player slot in the Fiorentina squad. The teenager made 35 appearances for Real Madrid, but only started 17, scoring three goals and getting a red card against Getafe.

The potential loan agreement has sparked a lot of interest among football fans, and it remains to be seen whether Fiorentina will be able to secure Mastantuono’s services. If they do, it would be a significant boost to their chances of succeeding in the Serie A.
