The Spanish international striker, European champion this summer, continues to make waves on the transfer market. Already in the sights of Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain, Nico Williams attracts a new strong suitor. While he shines under the colors of Athletic Club, his future seems more and more uncertain, especially since a giant of German football is now in the running.
Nico Williams, at the heart of desire
According to information from Sky Sports and journalist Florian Plettenberg, Bayern Munich is seriously considering recruiting the European champion next summer. Under the leadership of coach Vincent Kompany, the Bavarians would seek to strengthen their offensive line with two quality wingers. Williams is thus among the priorities of the German club, but this operation will also depend on the contractual situations of Leroy Sané, Serge Gnabry, Kingsley Coman and Bryan Zaragoza.
Williams’ price is estimated at between 50 and 60 million euros, a substantial but accessible amount for a club of Bayern’s stature. The 22-year-old had already been courted by FC Barcelona this summer, but he chose to remain loyal to his training club, Athletic Club.
A battle to come
In addition to Bayern, other European giants continue to monitor the situation. Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United, already mentioned as suitors, could also enter the dance to secure the services of the Spanish winger. With two goals and five assists in 23 games this season, Williams continues to prove that he is one of the most promising young talents in Europe.
