Nico Williams confronts to an important decision in the next hours, and his career like footballer of elite could change drastically in base to what finish choosing the forward of 22 years
Although Nico Williams' talent as a footballer is clear and proven, the 22-year-old is in a summer in which one of the five most important clubs in the world, FC Barcelona, is knocking on his door. The Blaugrana team wants to complete the signing of the forward as soon as possible, although the Navarrese has not yet given the green light to the operation.
The Athletic Club striker does not seem to be convinced yet to leave San Mamés, even after showing all of Europe that he is a player who is ready to play with the best and against the best. The Euro of the youngest of the Williams was the best example that he would have no problem in being a regular in the starting eleven of a club like Barça, but the reality is that this does not mean that he should delay his decision too much.
The Barça represents the absolute growth for Nico Williams
And as has been demonstrated on other occasions, the train of a team like Barça often passes only once. In fact, the Catalan team is currently working on the idea of not waiting for Nico Williams until 2025 if the Navarrese finally decides that he wants to continue at Athletic, trying to reach the final of the next edition of the Europa League.
There is no doubt that the decision that the Spanish striker makes is totally respectable and should always be seen as what he considers best for his career, but faced with an uncertain future, the reality is that everything could end up being different from what he currently projects. His arrival at Barça ensures that he will be surrounded by better teammates and will compete, for example, in the Champions League every season, two points that could make him grow definitively so that he can arrive in his best form at the 2026 World Cup, the first one he will play as an absolute international.
Barça, for their part, understand very well that Nico Williams would fit perfectly into their project, but they are not willing to give up making important moves this summer to wait for him until next year. And if he continues at Athletic there are many options that he will end up renewing to improve his salary and also his exit clause, so the Catalans understand that Nico must get on board now in order not to lose him permanently.
