Conflict between Rome and Naples over Atletico Madrid's Full-back

The Argentine Nahuel Molina has strongly entered the spotlight in the Italian league, as both Roma and Napoli have shown a serious interest in signing the Atletico Madrid full-back during the current summer transfer window.

According to Italian reports, Roma prefers to negotiate a direct purchase deal with Atletico Madrid, as the club believes that Molina has the ideal experience to strengthen the right flank in coach Gian Piero Gasperini's project.

On the other hand, Napoli is considering the possibility of convincing Atletico Madrid with a swap deal involving the Uruguayan full-back Matias Oliveira, taking advantage of the longstanding interest shown by coach Diego Simeone in the Napoli player during previous transfer windows.

Sources indicate that Atlético Madrid values Molina at around 15 million euros, a figure that makes the idea of an exchange with Oliveira a debatable option, especially since the market values of the players are similar.

It seems that the future of the Argentine world champion is open to all possibilities this summer, especially with his relatively reduced role in Atletico's lineup due to strong competition for the right-back position, despite the club and coach's continued confidence in his abilities.

With Rome and Naples entering a direct race, Molina's deal could become one of the most prominent battles in the Italian transfer market in the coming weeks, whether through a direct move to the Italian capital or through a swap deal leading him to the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
