Three major Premier League clubs are rumored to be interested in Bilbao's 21-year-old striker Williams


According to a report by the British media "Daily Mail", three major Premier League clubs are paying close attention to La Liga Athletic Bilbao's 21-year-old forward star Nico Williams.


Williams is a talent cultivated by Bilbao's youth training camp. After making his first-team debut in April 2021, he became one of the most watched rising stars in La Liga. He played 36 La Liga games on behalf of Bilbao last season, contributing 6 goals and 4 assists. Williams has played 5 games for Bilbao this season and provided 2 assists.


However, the youngster only has one year left on his contract with Bilbao, which has attracted the attention of several top European clubs.


It is reported that Liverpool and Manchester United in the Premier League have been paying attention to the new star's movements, and Brighton has also joined the transfer battle today and will compete with the Premier League's powerful teams to obtain Williams' services during the transfer window.


At the same time, La Liga giant Barcelona is also interested in signing Williams on a free transfer next summer after waiting for the end of his contract with Bilbao.


However, Bilbao is naturally unwilling to let this youth talent leave the team for free. It is understood that if a potential buyer is interested in purchasing Williams in the winter transfer window next January, Bilbao will be prepared to allow a price reduction to sell him for a transfer fee of 26 million pounds.
