FC Barcelona are making significant strides toward securing the signature of highly sought-after Athletic Club winger, Nico Williams. According to reputable journalist Javi Miguel, the Catalan giants have now fully agreed on personal terms with the player. This includes not only his proposed salary but also contractual guarantees—particularly assurances surrounding his official registration with La Liga, which has become a critical issue for Barça amid ongoing financial constraints.
At this stage, the club is reportedly turning its attention to the next—and arguably most complex—phase of the operation: structuring the financial elements necessary to both trigger Nico’s release clause and ensure that the deal complies with La Liga’s strict financial fair play rules. The release clause, a legally binding fee that allows a player to leave his current club without the club’s consent, is expected to require a considerable outlay.
Though there is no definitive date set for the formal announcement of Nico Williams’ arrival, sources suggest that internal preparations are progressing efficiently behind the scenes. Barcelona’s sporting department is working closely with its legal and financial teams to ensure that everything aligns in accordance with league protocols.
This move underscores Barça’s intent to reinforce their squad with young, high-potential talent ahead of the new season—while still navigating the intricate web of financial regulations imposed by La Liga
