Winger Nico Williams has put an end to speculation regarding a possible transfer to Arsenal, as Nico Williams has agreed with Athletic on a new contract for ten years—until 2035.
Nico WilliamsArsenal showed interest in Williams, whom they tried to sign last summer, but at that time Nico refused to leave Bilbao. This summer it seemed that Williams would finally leave Athletic. Besides Arsenal, both Barcelona and Bayern Munich were also interested in Nico.
However, the 22-year-old Spain international decided it was better to remain loyal to Athletic and signed a new contract that will allow him to stay in Bilbao for the next 10 seasons.
Athletic also reports that the previous release clause for Williams in his contract of £50 million has been increased by more than 50 percent.
