Overview
- The 2009-born attacking midfielder is departing before signing a professional deal under the patria potestad mechanism, which means River will not receive compensation for his development.
- Parma is cited as his likely destination in Italy, though the transfer has not been formally announced.
- River sources say repeated efforts throughout 2025 to secure his first contract were rejected as his representative had already set an exit abroad.
- Scarlato is considered one of River's top youth talents and has been regularly called up to Argentina's junior national teams.
- Coverage places the move within a pattern tied to agent Martín Guastadisegno, referencing prior cases such as Matías Soulé and Joaquín Panichelli, and reporting business ties and fiscal inspections not reflected in confirmed court proceedings.
