PSG remains determined to strengthen its offensive sector and is still very interested in Nico Williams, the 22-year-old winger playing for Athletic Bilbao. Despite lackluster performances this season (only 2 goals in 23 matches), the Spanish international maintains a high rating thanks to his impressive Euro 2024.
The capital club would be ready to lift its release clause of 58 million euros, but would still be waiting for a green light from the person concerned, according to information from the media El Desmarque. After resisting the advances of FC Barcelona this summer, could Nico Williams change his mind during the season? Nothing is less certain.
An ambitious project to seduce Nico Williams
To facilitate the arrival of Nico Williams, PSG would consider parting ways with Marco Asensio and Randal Kolo Muani, two players who would no longer feature in Luis Enrique’s plans. With Barça now out of the race after the recruitment of Dani Olmo, Paris hopes to take advantage of this opportunity to attract the young winger.
The Parisian management would see in him an asset to fill the departure of Kylian Mbappé and strengthen an offensive sector in search of dynamism and creativity. However, the Spanish winger remains committed to Athletic Bilbao, recently stating that he
“the feeling of Athletic is unique” and that “it’s the best place to progress”.
