In the context of financial difficulties, Barcelona still successfully recruited Dani Olmo. The value of the deal is about 60 million euros, and Blaugrana is likely to proceed with the familiar “installment payment” plan. In addition, Barca tried to avoid receiving investment capital from a project from the German company Libero. It was the Olmo deal that helped fans confidently think about another blockbuster, Nico Williams. Blaugrana was even interested in this deal before paying attention to Olmo. Williams is a fast and technical winger on the left wing. After Ansu Fati’s form dropped, Barca lacked a winger who could cut into the middle as well as Williams. The Catalan club’s desire has skyrocketed because Williams and Lamine Yamal have just brought the EURO silver cup back to Spain. If the two reunite at Barca, it will be a dream attack with Robert Lewandowski’s presence in the penalty area.

Therefore, in terms of position and personnel, Barca needs Athletic Bilbao star Dani Olmo more. Olmo is excellent, but his presence is likely to limit Fermin Lopez’s playing time. That happened at EURO 2024. Next season, if Lopez hangs his pants on the bench again, it would be a real shame because he just had a successful Olympic period. The player born in 2003 contributed 6 goals and 1 assist on the journey to winning gold in France. Williams is the contract that scratches the right itch, especially when coach Hansi Flick loves speed shots from the wings.

That is a move that shows that Bilbao wants to win the trust of the Spanish winger. Receiving the number 10 shirt, Williams broke his silence:
