Atletico Madrid have officially announced the arrival of Nahuel Molina, who signed a five-year contract after transferring from Udinese.
The Spanish side reportedly paid around €26-27m total for the 24-year-old Argentinian right back, who seemed ready for the jump to a big club after an impressive two year spell with the Friulian club.
Molina made 67 appearances across all competitions for Udinese following his arrival on a free transfer in September 2020, after his deal expired with Boca Juniors. His sale represents another strong piece of business by the Bianconeri, who still retain other much-coveted players like Destiny Udogie.
Molina has signed a five-year deal with Atletico, tying him to the club until 2027. He’ll be hoping to shine under Diego Simeone, further making a name for himself after breaking into the Argentina national side last year.
The 24-year-old is an exciting and progressive full back, known for his quality contributions to attack and his ability to progress play.
