Barcelona must buy him, the reasons why Spain star Nico Williams would be the ideal signing for Barca

FC Barcelona will be happy to see the performance of their young stars, Lamine Yamal and Pedri, at the EUROS 2024 with the Spanish national team. Both of these players will be crucial for Barcelona next season, and they will try to win trophies under their new manager, Hansi Flick. Another player who has impressed and has gotten along well with both Pedri and Yamal is Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams. The Spanish winger has been electric in the EUROS so far for Spain as he is threatening with his pace and creative playmaking. Williams is a big target for FC Barcelona this summer, and the Catalan club is interested in offering a deal to Bilbao to sign the young Spanish winger. His friendship with Pedri and Yamal could be key for him to arrive at Barcelona, as the players also want to continue playing with him but at the club level next season. Relevo reports that Joan Laporta wants Nico Williams to join Barça to continue his chemistry with Pedri and Yamal.

In the middle of EUROS 2024, Williams spoke about his future to La1. The Atheltic Bilbao winger said, "I’ve just signed new deal at Athletic few weeks ago, I feel very good there. I’m very happy at Athletic. It’s very strange to receive questions on my future."

Fabrizio Romano reported that several clubs have asked for informations on Nico Williams in the recent months, even before the Euros. Chelsea had him on the shortlist already last summer, and then they wanted Palmer. Arsenal and Liverpool discussed Nico Williams a few months ago, but FC Barcelona kept the player on their shortlist.
