Arsenal Leads Bids for Nico Williams Amid Athletic Bilbao Contract Talks
Arsenal are actively pursuing Athletic Club Bilbao winger Nico Williams as a key target to bolster their attacking options ahead of the 2025/26 season. The 22-year-old's versatility and strong performances have made him a favorite, with Arsenal reportedly willing to meet his £49-50 million release clause despite competition from Chelsea. However, Athletic Bilbao has initiated contract renewal talks with Williams, aiming to increase his salary and raise his release clause significantly, complicating Arsenal’s efforts. Concerns over Williams’ recent injury history and wage demands also pose challenges for Arsenal, who require reliable players to support their title ambitions under Mikel Arteta. Alongside Williams, Arsenal are exploring alternatives like Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers and Feyenoord’s Igor Paixão to strengthen their frontline. The club’s recruitment strategy balances experience and value, making the final decision contingent on negotiations and player availability.
