Nico William is an Athletic Bilbao winger
Athletic Bilbao winger, Nico Williams, has agreed personal terms on a six-year contract with Barcelona.
According to football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the Spanish winger has now agreed to his salary with Barcelona.
The deal, which would keep him at the Camp Nou until June 2031, is a major coup for the Catalan giants.
Romano wrote on X on Thursday, June 19, 2025, “Nico Williams and Barça have agreed personal terms on 6 year deal!
“Agreement sealed on player’s contract until June 2031 with the salary in the region of €7/8m net per season.
“Barça are currently working on financial terms to get deal done with Athletic,” possibly negotiating installment payments to ease the financial burden.
If successful, Williams would be a significant addition to Barcelona’s squad, bringing excitement and skill to their attacking lineup.
Williams emerged as the top target for Barcelona. He starred alongside Yamal as Spain won Euro 2024 last summer, scoring in the 2-1 final win over England.
Last season, the winger scored 11 goals and provided seven assists in all competitions, as Athletic secured a top-four finish in La Liga and reached Europa League semi-finals.
Bayern Munich wanted to sign the Spaniard earlier but the player has given priority to Barcelona with Spanish champions closing in on a deal.
