Reporter: Mastantono chose No. 30 because he was in the riverbed & Messi wore No. 30 in Paris

According to reporter Rodriguez, the reason why Real Madrid new player Mastantono chose the No. 30 jersey is because he wore this number when playing in the riverbed, and because his idol Messi also wore No. 30 in Paris. According to reports from Cobe, 18-year-old Mastantono wore Real Madrid's No. 30 jersey and became a first-team player of Real Madrid. However, the jersey number he chose has sparked controversy. Although his transfer fee exceeds 60 million euros and the club's first team still has an open registration quota, he will hold the registration license for the second team.

In Spain, the club's first team has 25 registered places, and players occupying these places must use jersey numbers of No. 1 to 25, which other countries do not have this regulation. The outside world has speculated that Real Madrid may reserve a place for another potential signing or dealing with injuries, but at present, this is not the reason, because the club has no plans to introduce more players for the time being.

According to journalist Arancha Rodríguez, it was Mastantono himself who applied to wear the No. 30 jersey, and although the club explained the potential impact of the choice to him, he insisted on choosing the number.

This number means a lot to him because it was the number he had played in the riverbed and the number his idol Messi wore when he was at Paris Saint-Germain. He hopes to continue using this number in his first season in Europe.
