He confirmed it in a video published on the Basque club’s social networks: Nico Williams will stay at Athletic this season. The winger, European champion 2024 with the Roja, will not leave Bilbao, despite very strong interest from FC Barcelona as well as Paris Saint-Germain. The daily Brand reveals that there are 4 reasons that explain this decision.
He believes that for him, it is the best choice for his sporting progression, since he will continue to evolve in a healthy environment and he will even discover European competitions. Then, in Bilbao, he is still fairly well paid and does not necessarily need to leave to fill his bank account. He also feels very identified with his training club, with the region, and is very close to his brother and teammate Iñaki. Finally, last reason: his agent did not force him to leave, even though he could have pocketed a huge commission, as is often the case. He respected the player’s decision and did not try to convince him to leave.
