Both clubs seem to have approached postures and the landing of the mediocentro of 16 to Chamartín would be when falling.

By this reason, the club pretends to close the operation with speed to avoid an unexpected twist in the agreement. Stage that repeated in 2022, when Chelsea 'loomed' with 'steal' to Endrick. Finally, the 'menino prodigio' finished putting course to the capital, where that Mastantuono fulfil the same destination.
