Barcelona gets approval from Williams, and the date for announcing the deal is set!
He said yes to Barça...
A Spanish press report revealed a new development regarding Barcelona's potential signing of Nico Williams, the Athletic Bilbao star, in the current summer transfer window.
According to the newspaper Sport, sources in Barcelona stated, "Nico Williams said yes to Barça... He told us he wants to come this summer."
Barcelona is keen on signing Williams in the current market after his outstanding performance with the Spanish national team, which contributed to their victory in the UEFA European Championship (Euro 2024) last month.
The sources explained, "It is now time to design the necessary structure to finance the payment of the release clause in Williams' contract, which will not be easy, but it is essential for completing the deal."
Barcelona believes they will sign Nico Williams' contract next week, but it won't be easy as they need to pay approximately 62 million euros, which includes the release clause along with the value-added tax.
