In the coming days, it should be known where Nico Williams will be playing his football during the 2024-25 season. Athletic Club are pushing hard to convince the 22-year-old winger to stick around for at least one more year, while Barcelona are also determined to secure his signing – which would be a massive statement.

Tiny margins could be the difference in Williams’ decision, and one consideration is his mind could be his global reach. His stardom grew exponentially earlier this summer because of his role in Spain’s Euro 2024 success, and moving to Barcelona would help his stock grow even more.
One aspect that could affect things is Nike’s partnership with Williams and Barcelona. The US giants sponsor both player and club, and as per Sport, they are aware that Williams joining the Catalans would help them with sales, as the Athletic star is set to become one of the faces of their company.
Moving to Barcelona would provide extra financial incentive for Williams in his partnership with Nike. It could be a factor in the player’s decision, albeit it’s unlikely to play a big role – Athletic Club will hope so, anyway.
“while Barcelona are also determined to secure his signing – which would be a massive statement”
What would that statement be?
Be stupid and borrow money and leave the mess to next president?
