Those in a position of power at Athletic Club have this week continued to work towards bringing a definitive halt to La Liga rivals Barcelona’s push for Nico Williams.
That’s according to Diario Sport, who point towards as much as having come by way of a release on the official website of the Basque side.
Athletic over the last 24 hours updated the home page of their site, with a striking new image…
This comes in the form of none other than the aforementioned Nico donning Athletic’s home kit for the 2025/26 campaign.
Whilst all signs continue to point towards the 22-year-old departing for Barcelona this summer, the brass at San Mamés are refusing to thrown in the towel in efforts to keep hold of Nico against the odds.
As per a report from Sport:
‘President Jon Uriarte is trying to torpedo the transfer by all means and, in recent days, Athletic launched another pressure manoeuvre (the new Nico image).’
