Barcelona Target Nico Williams Signs Eight-year Extension With Athletic Club
Nico Williams: Spanish forward Nico Williams has signed an eight-year contract extension at Athletic Club. With his previous deal set to run out in 2027, he has put pen to paper on a deal keeping him in Bilbao until June 30, 2035.
Williams is one of the most exciting young forwards in Europe, which was on highlight during Spain's 2024 European Championship winning campaign. FC Barcelona and Arsenal were the two clubs linked with the 22-year-old.
As per reports, Barcelona were highly interested in Williams and had agreed personal terms with the player, with only the activation of the release clause pending. However, the club confirmed Nico's new agreement has an increase in the release clause of more than 50 per cent over the previous one.
