An insight into a gesture of good will made by Athletic Club star Nico Williams to ensure his move to La Liga rivals Barcelona has this weekend been revealed.
The info comes courtesy of Diario Sport, and surrounds the contract terms agreed upon between the parties.
It is of course common knowledge at this point that a deal is already in place between Barcelona and wide-man Nico.
After a lightning round of negotiations last week, the parties quickly found common ground on the terms of a contract through the summer of 2031.
And as alluded to above, this weekend, an insight into one particularly significant detail of the contract has been revealed.
As per a report from Sport:
âNico will sign for six years to be able to amortize the operation more comfortably and is willing to receive an increasing salary by reducing what is necessary in his first season, money that he will recover over these six years.â
In other words, to aid a Barcelona outfit constantly battling with Financial Fair Play regulations, Nico has agreed to reduce his salary in his first season at the Camp Nou.
