RB Leipzig head coach Martin Demichelis remains convinced that former River Plate prodigy Franco Mastantuono possesses all the attributes required to succeed at Real Madrid. Although the teenage playmaker is spending the campaign out on loan at Fiorentina, his old mentor insists patience is key to his development in Europe.
Franco Mastantuono has opened up about the significant pressure placed on his shoulders after netting his first senior international goal for Argentina. The Fiorentina midfielder, who is currently on loan from La Liga club Real Madrid, made a significant impact during a dominant 7-0 victory against Burkina Faso at the Estadio Monumental.
Franco Mastantuono has eclipsed Lionel Messi to become the youngest Argentine to score a hat-trick in Europe’s top five leagues after firing Fiorentina to a 4-2 victory over Venezia. The Real Madrid loanee struck three times in Italy to kickstart his side's Serie A campaign and write his name into the history books.
Former Barcelona winger Cristian Tello has officially announced his retirement from professional football at the age of 35 following a career spanning 512 matches across six countries. The La Masia graduate, who enjoyed notable spells with Real Betis and Porto, called time on his playing days after a brief stint with UAE third-tier side Palm City FC.
Fiorentina have parted company with head coach Fabio Grosso following a calamitous start to the new Serie A campaign, the club confirmed on Sunday. Despite overseeing a massive €150 million summer overhaul, the 2006 World Cup winner was shown the exit door after suffering three consecutive league defeats that left La Viola rooted to the bottom.
