Arsenal journalist Charles Watts has dismissed rumors linking the Gunners to a significant bid for Spanish winger Nico Williams.<\/p>\n
Williams\u2019 outstanding performances at Euro 2024 have thrust him into the spotlight, with top European clubs competing for his signature.<\/p>\n
His \u20ac50 million release clause may appear attractive, but Arsenal are wary due to the expected high salary demands.<\/p>\n
The competition for Williams is fierce, and his success at the Euro is likely to intensify the bidding war. Last season, the 21-year-old made a strong impression at Athletic Bilbao, scoring five goals and providing 11 assists in La Liga, and celebrating a Copa del Rey triumph.<\/p>\n
Apart from Arsenal, Barcelona has shown a keen interest, while Premier League heavyweights Chelsea and Liverpool are also in the hunt. Following Kylian Mbapp\u00e9\u2019s departure, PSG is monitoring Williams as well.<\/p>\n
Former Athletic Bilbao star Julen Guerrero has advised Williams to remain with the club, citing its potential for further growth. \u201cI want him to stay at Athletic,\u201d Guerrero stated, highlighting the team\u2019s recent Copa del Rey victory and European qualification as the perfect environment for Williams\u2019 development.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s his decision,\u201d Guerrero concedes. While he respects Williams\u2019 right to choose, Guerrero hopes the young star will continue to embrace the challenges at Athletic Bilbao.<\/p>\n
Williams, who joined Athletic Bilbao at the age of 17 and made his debut in 2021, has become an integral player for both his club and the national team, with his brother I\u00f1aki providing invaluable support.<\/p>\n
