Real Madrid are reportedly considering a major addition to their attacking lineup this summer, with Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams emerging as a top target. Sources indicate the club is seriously evaluating the possibility of activating the 22-year-old’s €58 million release clause—a bold move that could significantly enhance their offensive depth for the upcoming season.

His pace, technical ability, and versatility—mainly operating on the left flank but effective on both wings—make him a highly attractive option for Los Blancos.
Should the transfer go through, it may trigger changes in Madrid’s current frontline. Rodrygo Goes could be the most impacted as the club reshapes its roster in preparation for the FIFA Club World Cup. While nothing has been confirmed yet, Real Madrid’s pursuit of Williams reflects their ongoing strategy to invest in emerging Spanish stars to maintain long-term dominance
