Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona is working this summer with Nico Williams like his absolute priority. The forward navarro is the objective number one of the culés to reinforce the first team, thinking in that it was the left extreme of a Hansi Flick that already has been presented this Thursday, although to some five days that it close the month of July, the operation still has several pending fringes.

And it is that although the Barça and the agent of Nico Williams would have all pactado, as we already have informed in previous days in FCBN, still the player has not given the "himself" to leave the Athletic Club this year. And it is that the last word has it the attacker of 22 years, the one who still does not know if it has to to give the definite step to the elite, or try grow a year more in the club of his life, having like motivation the final of the Europe League that this season will play in Saint Mamés.

The pressure of the Athletic and the situation with the PSG

To this fault of decision of the player, as it informs the journalist Gerard Romeo, adds that from the own Athletic have taken the posture to try convince to Nico that it can have problems with his registration if it decide to arrive to the Catalan group. In Bilbao would have several players that him 'recommend' to the youngster not arriving to the Barça by the economic situation of the club, which still needs several income to be able to return to the rule of the 1/1.

 

 

Romero also signals that what yes seems clear is that if the footballer finish abandoning Saint Mamés this summer will be to remain in Spain and land in the Barça, by what Paris Saint-Germain, or the Premier League, would be descartados, at least to the day of today. It is thus that from the Barça keep on being optimistic with the operation and trust to clear the doubts of the surroundings of the player with his registration, especially if it is the main subject with which are trying him move away of the City Condal.

The economy of the Barça, the point that seems key in the operation

The irruption of the PSG in the operation seems to have represented a light delay in the planning of the Barça, understanding that the Catalan club wanted to have the "himself" definite of Nico Williams this same week, but seems that his rival elder is his own financial situation. The entity needs to give the sufficient security to the forward so that it can abandon Bilbao without doubts with regard to his registration, as well as to the index card that pacte or to the future of his agreement in the short term.

It is necessary to remember that the FC Barcelona has promised him to Nico go up him the wage from his third year, the same that happened with Robert Lewandowski, the one who has had an ascending agreement season after season. In the club expect that this was sufficient so that it accept to lose so much money in his first campaigns when refusing to the PSG. Nevertheless, the final decision will be of Nico, that all indicates that it will finish pronouncing along the next week.
