On July 27, according to Spanish media outlet Sport, La Liga giants Barcelona remain confident in signing Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams.
Earlier, Catalan radio station RAC1 reported that Paris were willing to double Barcelona’s salary offer to secure the signing of the Spanish international.
According to reports, Barcelona feel that, despite the threat from Paris, the club remains confident in signing Nico Williams. Inside Barcelona, the club has received information that the footballer prioritizes a move to Barcelona, as the Spanish international prefers to stay in his home country. Moreover, the Catalan giants have several players who are teammates with Nico at the national team, and have a good relationship with him, especially Lamine Yamal, who previously expressed his desire to play alongside Nico. The two Spanish talents have displayed a good chemistry at the recent European Championships.
But club sources admit that they have not yet reached an agreement with the player. If they had, they would have already activated his release clause (€58 million). Furthermore, Barcelona hope to push the deal through as soon as possible and complete all procedures for signing Nico before the end of next week.
