The shape of him
Nahuel Molina is a 28-year-old defender at Atletico Madrid and a Argentina international. In 26/27 that meant 30 club appearances and 2,094 minutes. Defending is anticipation as much as tackling: reading the pass before it is played, holding the line, and starting the attack from the back.
The job
Win the individual duels, protect the space behind, and give the team a platform to build from.
