AC Milan’s scouting network has turned its attention to the Argentine league in search of promising young talents who could potentially strengthen the Rossoneri squad. The club is specifically looking for young players with strong personalities and significant room for improvement.
Calciomercato report how one player who has caught Milan’s eye is Thiago Fernandez of Vélez Sarsfield. The 20-year-old has been a standout performer in his team’s impressive run to the top of the Liga Professional. Fernandez, a left-sided attacker known for cutting inside to create chances, has already notched 6 goals and 9 assists this season. His speed, skill, and vision have impressed Milan’s scouts.
Another prospect on Milan’s radar is the even younger Franco Mastantuono of River Plate. At just 17 years old, Mastantuono is already making waves in Argentine football. Nicknamed “La Joya” (The Jewel), he combines exceptional technique with a strong personality and physical presence. While Milan has expressed interest, they face stiff competition for his signature, with Real Madrid reportedly leading the chase.
These scouting missions underscore Milan’s commitment to identifying and nurturing young talent from around the globe. However, with Mastantuono in particular, the club may face a challenging battle to secure his services given the high-profile interest from other European giants.
