According to Tycsports, Real Madrid will begin pre-season preparations on July 13, when Jose Mourinho will evaluate Mastantuono and Thiago Pitarch to decide whether to keep them or loan them out.
Real Madrid's pre-season training starts on July 13. After that, Mourinho will assess each player in the squad. Players who participated in the World Cup will gradually rejoin the team. Before then, Mourinho will first determine which players he wants to use for the new season.
The two players he is most focused on are Thiago Pitarch and Mastantuono, both 18 years old. Mourinho will evaluate their performances and decide whether to include them in his plans or find loan opportunities for them.
This evaluation reflects Mourinho's philosophy that young players unlikely to receive first-team opportunities should not occupy squad spots. He prefers these players to develop elsewhere at other clubs, maintaining their upward trajectory.
However, Mourinho is also genuinely interested in both Pitarch and Mastantuono. He was impressed by Pitarch's performances at the end of last season, and he pursued Mastantuono when the Argentine winger first emerged.
Real Madrid is reluctant to let the River Plate winger go unused, given the €63.2 million investment in him. The club will work to help this player, who has already proven his talent in Argentine football and for his national team, continue to develop.
