Manchester United and PSG find themselves in the heart of a duel on the transfer market. As the Red Devils look for a replacement for Marcus Rashford, a European player with immense potential is also attracting the attention of the Parisian club. The two giants are ready to do anything to secure his services.
Spanish winger Nico Williams, currently under contract with Athletic Bilbao, would be Manchester United’s main target according to El Desmarque. The 22-year-old stood out thanks to his impressive performances: 19 assists last season and already seven direct contributions this year. A regularity which also attracted the attention of PSG, looking for offensive reinforcements this winter.
Nico Williams: the jewel coveted by United and PSG
As for the Red Devils, the situation of Marcus Rashford, sidelined by Ruben Amorim, pushes the club to consider an offensive from January. The English player could be sold soon, freeing up a place for Williams. For their part, the Parisian leaders see in Williams an opportunity to strengthen a sometimes irregular attack.
If Athletic Bilbao favors a transfer at the end of the season, the competition between Manchester United and PSG could accelerate discussions. The player will soon have to choose between two ambitious but different projects, each offering him a unique opportunity to take a step forward in his career.
