Barcelona’s sporting director, Deco, recently met with Nico Williams’ agent to discuss a potential transfer, leaving Athletic Club stunned and shocked. Williams reportedly asked his agent to gauge Barcelona’s interest in signing him this summer. The Spain star has also been in talks with Hansi Flick, Barcelona’s incoming manager.
*Key Details:*
– *Athletic Club’s Reaction*: The club is finding it hard to believe the meeting took place, as Williams’ agent, Felix Tainta, had allegedly planned to keep it secret. Tainta had told them he was visiting Barcelona to see friends, but instead, he met with Deco.
– *Contract Situation*: Williams’ contract runs until 2027, but it includes a release clause of €62 million. If activated, Athletic Club won’t be able to retain him.
– *Other Suitor*: Besides Barcelona, Williams is also being pursued by Bayern Munich and Arsenal this summer.
– *Athletic Club’s Stance*: Despite the developments, Athletic Club remains convinced they won’t lose Williams and is hopeful about renewing his contract.
