Barcelona want Nico Williams transfer decision closed before Athletic Club clash

Barcelona have set a fresh deadline over their lingering hopes of signing Nico Williams.

La Blaugrana have openly pursued the Spanish international throughout the summer following his key role in La Roja’s Euro 2024 triumph.

However, despite their insistence, Athletic Club have stood firm and the Basque side are confident of retaining him for the 2024/25 campaign.

Time is running out for Barcelona, and Williams looks to prefer a stay in Bilbao over a move to Catalonia, at this stage of his career.

Barcelona have since brought in Dani Olmo, a dual target alongside Williams, but there remains a slim chance of a deal.

As per the latest update from Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona have now set a final internal deadline of August 23, to wrap up the saga.

That is the point of no return for Barcelona, as they play host to Williams and Athletic Club on the following day, in their first home game of the new season.
