Argentinian giants River Plate are exploring the possibility of bringing back two of their biggest talents, Franco Mastantuono and Claudio Echeverri. According to ESPN journalist Juan Patricio Balbi, the club has already made initial contact with both Real Madrid and Manchester City.
The idea for "Los Millonarios" is to secure loan deals for both midfielders, who moved to Europe to join Real and City, respectively.
It is believed that re-signing Echeverri appears more realistic at this stage, considering the player's status and his stronger desire to return to his homeland.
This season, Mastantuono has made 23 appearances and scored 1 goal for Real Madrid in La Liga.
Meanwhile, Echeverri spent half a season each at Bayer Leverkusen and Girona. For the German side, he played 6 Bundesliga matches without getting on the scoresheet, while in La Liga, he featured in 17 games and scored 1 goal.
