Another Youngster In Madrid´s Radar?

The biggest transfer in Argentina is supposed to happen within the next 72 hours.   Many of the people outside of the country know him, but he seems to be one of the biggest promises in the game in three or four years.

River Plate’ s Matías Musacchio, one of the club’s biggest prospect is being looked at by Real Madrid and he could be packing his bags and crossing the pond to be one of the Baby Merengues next season.   River Plate treasurer Hector Grinberg will be negotiating with Madrid sports director Predrag Mijatovic in order to obtain the youngster on a one-year loan basis for  US$ 4 million.  Madrid plans to have the player as the primary signing for their Madrid Castilla B side in the second division with an eventual option for River to obtain 10- 15% of his pass depending on how he performs over in the European scene.

Although he is very young, the defender had experience as he took a great leap from the River Plate seventh division all the way to having started on occassion with the first team during the 2006 Apertura under Daniel Passarella.
