Nico Williams And his advisors negotiate with Laporta The signing of a guarantee document to be registered before accepting the Barcelona contract proposal. The Barca club seeks financing routes for pay the almost 63 million clause to Athletic and will have to make at least an important sale for Be able to register Nico and Joan García without breaching the salary stop of its template.
He advanced it Eduardo Inda In 'El Chiringuito de Jugones': «They tell me that he has done it with him Barçabut has asked guarantees that they can register and that there is no case like that of Dani Olmothat is a mess and that is still pending resolution ».
Although Nico Williams is crazy For playing in Barcelona next to Lamine Yamal and the rest of his colleagues from the Spanish team, the Athletic player, advised by his agents and lawyers, It will not take the final step until the Barca club can offer you the guarantees that you can register it in the League before the season begins.
Nico Williams is not willing to spend the Calvary that Dani Olmo lived last season, which was registered at the end of August with a provisional license taking advantage of Christensen's injury, a central whose file occupied a striker perverting the spirit of the rule that allows to cover the vacancies of injured players.
What happened later, when that provisional registration concluded, it was already Chirigota. Barcelona tried to register Dani Olmo out of time, the League denied the registration but the CSD, in direct order of the Government of Pedro Sánchezhe granted him a precautionary that adulterated the competition. Although both the League and the clubs shouted in the sky, Dani Olmo could play the Super Cup, the Copa del Rey and the League and win the three titles with Barcelona.
Nico Williams's decision
Nico Williams does not want That is why it intends the guarantees in writing and even with some compensation clause In the event that the Barca club could not register before the start of the League on August 14.
The situation of the little of the Williams in Bilbao begins to be unsustainable. Last Sunday appeared unpleasant painted in a commemorative mural in which Nico and his brother Iñaki appear from which they erased their face and wrote the following: “You leave or stay you have already lost respect.” A vandalian act strongly condemned by Athletic, which spoke hours later in a resounding statement.

«Those who have erased the image of Nico From the mural of artist Carlos López in Barakaldo they do not represent Athletic. And if they believe they are part of this family, they should know that they are wrong: to disrespect one of ours, it is to disrespect Athletic itself, ”says the entity, which comes out in defense of the extreme despite the rumors of its possible march to Barcelona, which would pay its termination clause with the approval of the footballer.
In the Ibaigane club they are very clear that They will not negotiate any term with Barcelona: Neither flexibility in payments, nor deadlines, nor any minimal reduction. Joan Laporta will have no other remedy to pay the clause to the cash as he did a few days ago with Joan García if he wants to sign Nico Williams, and it would be the player who would always have the last word. If you have no guarantees of being registered, the same history repeats itself and Barcelona escapes as it happened last summer.
