Athletic Bilbao forward Nico Williams has sent an emotional message on social media amid transfer links with Arsenal and Chelsea.
The 22-year-old international enjoyed a fantastic Euro 2024 for Spain this summer with his two goals and an assist playing a key role in their victory in Germany. Williams also helped Bilbao win the Copa del Rey last season for the first time since 1984.
His performances for club and country have seen several big clubs from across Europe linked including the Gunners and Enzo Maresca’s team. Barcelona, though, have been seen as his most likely destination with the Catalans said to have made an offer.
The winger is reported to have had a £50million release clause inserted into his contract at the start of December. Williams’ current deal is set to expire in June 2027.
