Diego Simeone addresses Nahuel Molina future amid Juventus links

Atlético Madrid manager Diego Simeone has publicly put an end to speculation regarding the future of Argentine full-back Nahuel Molina, whose name had been heavily linked with a move to Juventus this transfer window.

In a press conference, Simeone praised Molina’s commitment and enthusiasm, effectively confirming the player will remain in Madrid.

“Molina is working very well. He has a lot of desire, he is full of enthusiasm and happiness, and when his moment comes, he shows he can help us,” the coach stated, highlighting the player’s value to the squad.

The 25-year-old defender, who joined Atlético from Udinese in 2022, has become an integral part of Simeone’s tactical setup, contributing both defensively and in attack.

His consistent development and the clear trust from his manager suggest that any potential transfer is now off the table.

With these strong declarations from Simeone, it is widely expected that Molina will stay at Atlético Madrid for the upcoming season, ready to continue his role as a key player in both La Liga and the Champions League campaigns.

This effectively closes the door on Juventus’s interest in the player as they look to reinforce the right flank.
