Barcelona eyeing double signing amid Nico Williams frustration | OneFootball

A fresh insight into the plans of the powers that be at La Liga giants Barcelona to add to the club’s frontline for next season has on Wednesday been provided.

This, of course, comes amid the widespread expectation that Barca are all set to miss out on their priority transfer target.

After weeks of intense negotiations with the representatives of Athletic Club star Nico Williams, the Spanish international is understood to be increasingly inclined towards rejecting the advances of the Blaugrana, in favour of staying put.

As much, for obvious reasons, marks a heavy blow for a Barcelona outfit who were building their plans around Nico’s addition to their frontline.

So, what next for Deco and co?

As alluded to above, on Wednesday, an insight into precisely that has been forthcoming online.

The info comes courtesy of Barca insider Adrián Sánchez of Mas Que Pelotas, and points towards the Catalans’ immediate plans already being in place.

Should final word arrive that Nico has chosen to remain at Athletic Club, efforts towards bringing in Dani Olmo from RB Leipzig will immediately be ramped up.

Not only that, but if a 2nd attacking signing hasn’t been secured come the final weeks of the transfer window, attentions could well turn back towards a fresh deal for Atlético Madrid’s João Félix.
