Most players are currently under fire Real Madrid amid a disappointing season. While much of the criticism is aimed at the stars, promising youngsters Franco Mastantuono has also been examined. Argentina legend Mario Kempes has given his opinion about the player using Lamine Yamal as an example.
Advice comes from all sides, but one voice with the experience of guiding young players is Kempes. The 1978 World Cup winner recently compared what Mastantuono should do with what the Barcelona star has done.
In an interview with Argentinian streamer Rodrigo Rea, Kempes said: “He needs to be more aggressive. Play like he did at River Plate. Look at Yamal. He dribbles, he shoots on goal. He makes mistakes, a few, but he keeps trying. If he doesn’t, he won’t last long.”
Mastantuono’s first months at his new club were not good. Expectations were high for the $60 million transfer, but his role in the team is now being questioned. So far he has played in 23 matches, scoring three goals, leaving his place in the starting XI uncertain every week.
