The star who will join Liverpool in January if Argentina are World Cup winners

We have arrived at the cover of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, with two great teams that have enough arguments to be crowned champions next weekend. On the one hand France and their desire to be two-time champions, and at the other end Argentina, with a great generation of players who want to embroider the third star at the end of the year in the Middle East.

Within this constellation of stars that the pamperos boast is a player who has raised the world's interest for his great tournament. Nahuel Molina, 24, who has played 477 minutes of football up to this final, has the full confidence of coach Lionel Scaloni, who never tires of speaking highly of the Atletico Madrid of Spain defender.

He scored a goal in the third-place game and this is the price Liverpool will have to pay for him

The Reds have their eyes firmly fixed on him. Klopp knows very well that the Argentina international has a great present and especially in his position, years ahead of great level. Molina, who despite being a defender, has scored in this World Cup, getting on the scoresheet in the quarter-final against the Netherlands, which ended in a draw and went to penalties.

Nahuel came up through the youth ranks at Boca Juniors, where he was loaned out on a couple of occasions before making a name for himself in the Argentinian top flight. First in 2018 he left for Defensa y Justicia, before joining Rosario Central the following year. Attracting interest from Europe, Udinese of Italy bid for him and acquired him in 2020 where he was sold to Spain to play with Pablo Diego Simeone at Atléti.

Nahuel Molina is rumoured to be a Liverpool target

For now Nahuel is concentrating with his national team in search of his childhood dream of becoming a champion. Reports from Spain claim that the Spanish capital club are asking for more than 50 million for the defender. Klopp knows that Molina would be part of this generational change on Merseyside, which has contemplated at least two more additions this winter.
