Barcelona sporting director Deco has met with Nico Williams’ agent as the Blaugrana look to sign the forward ahead of Arsenal and Chelsea.
WHAT HAPPENED?
According to Jijantes, Deco caught up with Williams’ representative Felix Tainta in Zaragoza on Wednesday as they discussed contract terms for the Spain and Athletic Club attacker. The Blaugrana have been linked with the young winger for quite some time and are now trying to seal a transfer ahead of Premier League giants Chelsea and Arsenal.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Earlier this week, The Athletic reported that both the Gunners and the Blues remain keen on roping in the winger, who recently starred for Spain and played a key role in his team lifting their record fourth European Championship title.
DID YOU KNOW?
With Williams and Lamine Yamal doing wonders together for La Roja in international football, Barcelona fans will hope that the duo will be able to replicate that magic in club football for their side in the upcoming 2024-25 campaign.
WHAT NEXT FOR BARCELONA?
Hansi Frlick’s side have already begun pre-season and will next travel to the US for friendly matches against clubs like Manchester City and Real Madrid later this month.
