Several weeks after the extension of Nico Williams at Athletic Bilbao, ending the possibility of joining FC Barcelona, this case continues to be talked about. This time, the Catalan daily life Sport provides new information by revealing that a manager has contacted the 23 -year -old to ask him to “drop” his agent Félix Tainta to do “Represent by Jorge Mendes or Pini Zahavi”.

A request which would have deeply indignant the Williams family, very close to Tainta, and which would have destroyed all the advances that existed in the negotiations between Athletic and Barça. The Catalan stable, for its part, reproached Tainta for slowing down negotiations with the Basque club from the moment the latter was ready to extend the Spanish winger and to value his contract. Still according to SportBarcelona concern had grown up while a niche at the Barcelona hospital had already been reserved for the medical examination. Anyway, Nico Williams is now linked to the club in his city until 2035.
