Franco Mastantuono, Argentina, Real Madrid
28 May 2026
Franco Mastantuono is at risk of missing Argentina’s final World Cup squad despite reporting to camp in strong physical condition. The Real Madrid teenager could be left out because of tactical choices rather than injury concerns.
Lionel Scaloni said final decisions will depend on performance and condition before the squad deadline. Mastantuono’s hopes may hinge on fitness checks for Nahuel Molina, Nico Gonzalez and Gonzalo Montiel, who could open late roster space.
