Arsenal’s pursuit of Nico Williams has taken a significant turn, as Barcelona has reportedly cooled its interest in the highly-rated winger.
According to football.london, Joan Laporta, Barcelona’s president, confirmed that the club is now evaluating other options for their summer transfer business. This development opens the door for Arsenal to make a stronger move for the 22-year-old, who has impressed this season with Athletic Club.
Williams, whose contract runs until 2027, has enjoyed an excellent campaign, contributing five goals and five assists in La Liga. His efforts helped propel Athletic Club back into the UEFA Champions League for the first time in over a decade. Despite his rising profile, he has consistently expressed his loyalty to Athletic Club, where he feels a deep connection.
“I have the opportunity to make history at this club. The dream never ends,” Williams said in a recent interview, underscoring his commitment to his boyhood team. However, with Barcelona shifting their focus, Arsenal could now be in pole position to secure his signature in the upcoming transfer window.
While Arsenal has long been linked with Williams, manager Mikel Arteta is reportedly a big admirer of the Spanish international. The Gunners are looking to bolster their attacking options this summer, and Williams could be an ideal fit for Arteta’s tactical setup.
Given Williams’ talent and the £59 million valuation placed on him, it remains to be seen whether Arsenal will push forward with a formal bid. His future is still uncertain, but if Arsenal continues its pursuit, they could have a real opportunity to land the highly sought-after winger.
