Nico Williams was one of the main candidates for the vacant position on the wings at Bayern. But the outdoor car player is said to have recently given the Munich team a basket and chose FC Barcelona. Now a media report is making the round that the German record champion doubted Williams anyway, but curiously hopes for a transfer at the same time.
In the past few weeks, Nico Williams has been intensively traded as the desired player of FC Bayern for the outer lane, there were even reports about offers for the professional of athletic bilbao.
But on Thursday, the 22-year-old leaked through that the Munich is said to have canceled because he sees his future more at FC Barcelona. “Image” and “Sky” reported accordingly. Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano wrote of a six-year contract that has already been negotiated.
A little strangely, however, another “picture” information seems: On the one hand, the boulevard leaf learned that despite all efforts, the German record champion was not completely convinced of Williams. Accordingly, internally there was doubts as to whether the Spaniard was the necessary quality to become a top player on the wings in Munich.
Exactly the doubts and the associated hesitation in the negotiations would then also lead to Barca could take the opportunity for himself.
Despite doubts: FC Bayern continues to hope for Williams
On the other hand, according to “Bild”, FC Bayern, despite the concerns, is hoping that the agreement with the Catalans will fail and that you still get a chance from Williams. The background: The highly indebted Spanish top club has had its problems registering new players for years. In the past season, ex-Leipzig Dani Olmo almost received no entitlement to play.
At Williams, everything should be different in Barcelona. As “BILD” experienced, those responsible soon expect a major payment from the German investor “Libero Football Finance”, which is what the Financial Fair Play is to do. In the end, the Williams deal could also be financed.
The wing racer is available by exit clause. According to media reports, this is between 58 and 65 million euros.
