This morning, news broke in Barcelona about Nico Williams starting his training with Athletic Club, as a video of the event quickly made its rounds on their social media platforms.
The video footage indicates that the player may be inclined to stay, but Barcelona remains steadfast in their pursuit, believing that the chase is far from over.
According to Diario Sport, as long as Nico Williams does not definitively turn down Barcelona, the club will persist in their attempts to secure his transfer. The club has every intention of launching a robust offensive to bring him on board.
Approximately ten days ago, Barça put forth a formal offer that appeased all concerned parties. They assured the player that the funds for his release clause were ready and that he could be seamlessly registered before the commencement of the La Liga season.
Insiders at the club stress to Diario Sport, that they have a confidential strategy in place to secure the signing of Nico Williams – something of a ‘secret plan’ to potentially sign him before August 30. Despite the challenges, they are confident that it is an achievable signing.
The club believes that Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo could be factors in their favor, while Nico Williams makes his final decison.
