Atlético de Madrid is reportedly offering Nahuel Molina to Villarreal due to having too many non-EU players after signing Thiago Almada. It is noted that Molina is in the process of obtaining Spanish citizenship, which could potentially resolve this issue. However, the anticipated arrival of Jesús Areso at Atlético might leave Molina without a spot, leading the club to propose him to Villarreal. Moreover, although Molina was previously a reliable player for Diego Simeone, he has recently lost his starting position and has not met expectations since his return from the Qatar World Cup. This scenario has prompted Atlético to consider him as a player they can sell to balance their squad. In addition, while Villarreal is a possible destination, there is also interest from Italian clubs, particularly Juventus, who have been observing Molina as they aim to strengthen their right flank.
