According to a report from Tutto Juve, Arsenal and Aston Villa are ready to sign Nahuel Molina. The 25-year-old has worked wonders for Atlético Madrid and he is on the radar of many clubs across Europe.
Molina rose through the ranks at Boca Juniors before joining Udinese Calcio in the summer of 2020. He has gone from strength to strength following his move to the Italian club. During his two years in Italy, the Argentina international put in some impressive performances and attracted a lot of attention. He eventually joined Diego Simeone’s squad ahead of last season. In his first season at the Madrid club, he played a total of 43 matches and was on the field for more than 3,700 minutes. He even scored eight goals.
The 25-year-old player even had an impressive 2022 World Cup with Argentina. Molina played a key role in helping the South American country win the world tournament. His impressive performances for club and country have not gone unnoticed.
Many clubs across Europe are ready to take him away from Madrid. Arsenal and Aston Villa are two of the clubs ready to increase their financial strength.
Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu have done a great job for Mikel Arteta recently. But none of them are offensive in nature. As a result, the Gunners have been hunting for a new right-back for some time. They may not have made any signings this summer, but they’re still looking for an offensive tackle.
Molina seems to be a great fit for the club and they are ready to do their best to accommodate him. Meanwhile, Unai Emery’s Aston Villa is doing quite well in the transfer market recently. They have signed quite a few talented players and are looking to add more players in the future. Villa are looking for a quality return and believe Molina can work wonders for them.
Atlético Madrid are well aware of the interest in his services. They have no plans to let him leave as the 25-year-old is an integral part of Simeone’s future plans. Therefore, they are willing to extend his contract until 2029.
Although his current contract runs until the summer of 2027, they are looking to secure him for an even longer period with a better overall package. But it won’t be easy as clubs across Europe will be trying their best to lure him.
