Nico Williams is getting closer to FC Barcelona. Dazzling at the Euro, the 22-year-old left winger is the priority track for the Catalan club this summer, which wants to reform its duo with Lamine Yamal. If the Spanish-Ghanaian caught the eye of Barcelona recruiters, the profile is also validated by artificial intelligence. Brand reports today that the AI, Olocip, specialized in football, rated the performance of the Bilbao player at a very high level.

According to AI, Nico Williams would perform better than 96% of the attackers who could occupy his position at Barça next year. The tool’s predictions are based on the analysis of the volume of actions but also on the quality of these. The only black spot on the board detected for Nico Williams is his defensive performance. However, this should not prevent Barça from signing the player, while negotiations have reportedly accelerated in recent hours.
