The future of Nico Williams at Athletic Bilbao is becoming more and more speculative. According to a report in The Telegraph, Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly keeping an eye on the young Spaniard’s circumstances in preparation for a summer move.
Nico Williams has been quite busy this past week. The winger assisted Bilbao in ending a 40-year trophy drought this past weekend, as the Basque team won the Copa del Rey on Saturday night following a penalty shootout in the championship game.
On the other hand, Williams might be headed to the Premier League.The 21-year-old has already been linked to Spurs, but Chelsea and Arsenal are rumored to be interested as well (Mirror).
Just today, a report from Spanish outlet AS (via Sport Witness) suggested the likes of Tottenham, Aston Villa, and Liverpool have ‘tempted’ Williams to consider a switch to England.
Spurs weighing up move for Nico Williams
This reported interest from the Premier League has been corroborated by The Telegraph, who claim Williams will be “at the centre of” a transfer battle between various English clubs this summer.
Spurs are thought to be “keeping an eye on” Williams’ situation, and are one of a number of clubs “weighing up” a deal that could be worth £42.8m as per the player’s release clause.
There will be “intense competition” for one of the most desirable properties in Spain, but it is thought that Ange Postecoglou’s team is evaluating “whether additions are needed” in that specific position.
Spurs Online Views
If Nico Williams were to join with us, I would be overjoyed because I believe he could be a true game-changer. Despite his youth, he already possesses a great deal of potential, so you would assume he could soon adjust to the Premier League. We need to put in our best effort on this one, even though getting the signature won’t be simple.
