Athletic Bilbao’s winger, Nico Williams, is the name on everyone’s lips right now. After Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain is also eyeing his situation.
According to The Athletic, PSG is seriously interested in signing Williams from Athletic Bilbao.
PSG has already contacted Bilbao about the winger and will have no issues paying his release clause of 58 million euros.
Barcelona’s interest in Williams is genuine, but it is said that they are waiting to get a green light from the player before proceeding to pay the fee.
It is unlikely that Williams will choose PSG over Barça, but in terms of finances, there is only one club that can pay him the same or even more than the 200,000 euros per week he earns in Bilbao, and it is not Barça.
PSG is looking for a forward to replace the departing Kylian Mbappe. The Frenchman’s move to Real Madrid means they have lost an average of 35 goals per season.
