Arsenal and Aston Villa, are said to be closely monitoring Atletico Madrid's defender Nahuel Molina, according to Ok Fichajes (h/t Caught Offside).
The 25-year-old is under contract with the La Liga side until the summer of 2027, and the Spanish club is interested in extending his contract until 2029.
Speculation has arisen about his release clause, which could be set at around €90 million. The Argentine has been a valuable player for Diego Simeone making 43 appearances in all competitions for the club last season.
Both the Gunners and the Villains could benefit from this versatile player who can operate as both a right-back and a right-sided winger. Mikel Arteta used Ben White as their right-back last season and might be in need of a more specialized option like Molina.
The prospect of joining a major league such as the Premier League, could appeal to the South American defender.
