Nico Williams still dreams of playing for FC Barcelona. The Basque winger is willing to make an extra effort to negotiate with the ‘cul\u00e9s’.<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona keeps open the possibility of signing Nico Williams this summer. Although the season of the ’10’ of Athletic has not been the best (he has 9 goals and 7 assists in 29 matches with Ernesto Valverde’s team), the player from Pamplona remains one of the options best valued by the board when it comes to left wingers. Rafael Leao (Milan) and Luis D\u00edaz (Liverpool)’s ball in the second half of 2024-25<\/strong> has allowed the Basque forward to regain ground against the Portuguese and the Colombian.<\/p>

In addition, in the economic aspect, the youngest of the Williams can also take advantage of his two main rivals for a position in the Bar\u00e7a attack. His termination clause remains at an amount close to 60 million euros<\/strong>. And, with regard to salary, Nico would also negotiate a more discreet fee than other ‘cracks’, although teams like Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal<\/a> would offer him a much higher contract.<\/p>

Nico Williams’ fee would not be a major problem for Bar\u00e7a<\/h2>

In principle, the 22-year-old forward could aspire to a contract in the order of 15 million euros gross per year<\/strong>, almost 5 ‘kilos’ more than what he earns this season at Athletic. Bar\u00e7a still has to resolve the new contracts of Lamine Yamal and Frenkie de Jong, but first it must resolve its problems with the financial ‘Fair Play’. While the club does not return to the 1:1 rule, it will be much more difficult to adjust the wage bill and manage the arrival of new reinforcements in the upcoming summer market.<\/p>

Beyond the complex azulgrana economic situation, Nico is clear about his priority of arriving in Barcelona in July or August<\/a>. This summer, the Basque will not put obstacles to his departure from Athletic, although the ‘lions’ still dream of negotiating a new renewal. The winger signed until 2027, fulfilling the promise of playing in the Europa League and trying to win it. Looking ahead to 25-26, his leap to a giant of Europe is inevitable and in San Mam\u00e9s they are aware of it. Will Bar\u00e7a be able to close his signing?<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
