Barcelona’s priority target still silent on future plans
Nico Williams, a priority target for Barcelona, has once again dodged the question related to his future.
Speaking in an interview ahead of Spain’s Euro 2024 quarter-final contest against Germany, the winger emphasised that his current focus is on the Spanish national team and the ongoing European Championship.
With the match looming, Nico redirected inquiries about his future several times towards the important international tournament, all with a lighthearted demeanour.
When pressed directly about his future plans, he was quoted by Mundo Deportivo as saying, “100%, the national team.”
At 21 years old and contracted with Athletic Club until 2027, Nico is attracting significant interest from clubs across Europe, including Barcelona, where he shares a strong bond with their representatives on the national team, particularly Lamine Yamal.
His release clause is set at around €58 million and this is exactly something, apart from his extravagant salary demand, that is hindering Barcelona’s progress.
