After his stint at Atlético Madrid, the Argentine full-back joins the Italian team, where he signed a four-year contract
Molina will thus return to a football he already knows. Between 2020 and 2022, he defended the jersey of Udinese, where he established himself as one of the team's key players, which earned him a call-up from Lionel Scaloni to the Argentine National Team and later his transfer to Colchonero, where he stayed for four years.
Now he will begin a new story with the team from the Italian capital, where he will share the squad with three other Argentines: Paulo Dybala, Matías Soulé, and the recently signed Santiago Castro.
Since his arrival at Colchonero in mid-2022, the former Boca player has played 11,551 minutes, spread over 181 matches, in which he scored 9 goals, provided 17 assists, and received 20 yellow cards and 2 red cards.
After four seasons at Atlético de Madrid, Nahuel Molina will return to play in Italy. The 28-year-old Argentine right-back has closed a chapter in Spain and will take on a new challenge in Serie A, where he had already made his mark during his time at Udinese.
The next destination for the world champion will be Roma, which officially announced his signing on Wednesday with a contract until mid 2030. The defender will wear the number 20 jersey and will face a season of maximum demand, as the capital team will participate in Serie A, Coppa Italia, and the Champions League.
The arrival had a unique presentation. The Loba used images generated with artificial intelligence to create a marble statue inspired by the city and used that figure as part of the campaign to announce the Argentine. First, they kept the sculpture covered and then progressively revealed the image of Molina in a video.
Although neither Roma nor Atlético de Madrid officially communicated the figures of the transfer, Spanish media reported that the operation would have closed at 13 million euros fixed plus another six in variables. Thus, the total amount could rise to 19 million.
