But after his matchwinner performance against Boca Juniors on Sunday, Di Carlo made clear that Mastantuono would not be leaving this year.
The 17 year-old has a buyout clause of €45m in his contract, but Di Carlo insisted: "It is a certainty. He will stay for the rest of the year."
Meanwhile, Mastantuono also stated on Sunday: "My head is here, at River. We have many important things ahead of us.
"I'm really enjoying this moment and I want to continue doing so. It was the game I was most looking forward to since I've been in the First Team. I'm very excited."
