Barça would now be less keen on Athletic Bilbao left winger Nico Williams, who was their priority last summer.
Next summer, FC Barcelona would make it a priority to recruit a high-caliber left winger. Among the avenues studied in this position by Barcelona leaders, we find that leading to Nico Williams. After failing to recruit him during the last summer transfer window, Barça would still be interested in the Spanish left winger, who ultimately stayed at Athletic Bilbao for one more season.
Barça's interest in Nico Williams is running out of steam
But Nico Williams would no longer be at the top of the Blaugrana club's shortlist. Indeed, according to information from the English journalist from The Athletic David Ornstein, the current leader of La Liga seems to have backed down on the 2024 European champion. Barça, who would also follow Rafael Leão (AC Milan), Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (Naples ) or even Kerem Aktürkoglu (Benfica) for his reinforcement at the left winger position, would he have advanced on another target? This could explain why the Nico Williams track took a turn for the worse.
