BREAKING: The news every Liverpool fan around the world has been waiting for has just arrived….
Representatives of Atletico Bilbao winger Nico Williams are reportedly informing clubs such as Liverpool and Aston Villa that the star is ready to agree a transfer.
For a 21-year-old with only two seasons of top-flight football under his belt before this term, Williams is having a very impressive campaign. Indeed, only five La Liga players have bettered his six assists so far.
The Spaniard is also on three league goals, but it’s in the Copa del Rey where he’s shone most brightly.
In five games in the competition this season, Williams has scored three goals and provided four assists. In the last two games alone – against Barcelona and Atletico Madrid no less – he’s been directly involved in four goals.
The winger is putting up remarkable numbers, and could well help his side to silverware.
It’s no surprise, then, that he’s on the radar of some of Europe’s biggest clubs.
TEAMtalk recently revealed that Chelsea and Tottenham are primed and ready to strike for him in the summer.
That owes to the fact Williams has a £43million release clause, so despite having just signed a new deal with Bilbao, he’s expected to walk out the door.
