Barca make new contract offer to Nico Williams, it's more lucrative than Athletic Bilbao deal (reliability: 4 stars)

According to La Vanguardia, Barcelona have made a new lucrative contract offer to Nico Williams to tempt him into joining them.

The Blaugrana are ready to give the Spanish winger a pretty good yearly salary of €7.5m. His deal will also have performance-related bonuses for him to earn big money.

Williams earns around €5m-a-year at Athletic Bilbao right now and is getting a major increase from that if he accepts Barca’s current offer.

The Blaugrana are currently pushing hard to sign the young winger after watching him play a key role in Spain’s Euro 2024 success.

Williams has a €58m release clause in his contract, something which Barca feel that they can activate to take him away from Bilbao.

But Nico is yet to fully decide on whether he wants to join the Blaugrana this summer as he ideally doesn’t want to go away from playing with his brother Inaki either.
