Barcelona’s next summer signing labelled as ‘150% done’ | OneFootball

La Liga champions Barcelona have all but closed their next signing of the summer transfer window.

That’s according to Blaugrana insider Gerard Romero, who confirms that, despite concerning claims surrounding the saga over recent days, Athletic Club star Nico Williams will arrive in Catalunya’s capital over the coming weeks.

Barcelona have of course long had a contract agreement in place with wide-man Nico through the summer of 2031.

In turn, it came as a major surprise when, earlier this week, word was forthcoming that the 22-year-old’s Camp Nou switch was hanging in the balance.

Mundo Deportivo, for one, highlighted displeasure on the part of Deco and co, owing to sudden demands made by Nico and his entourage regarding guarantees for his registration with La Liga.

As alluded to above, though, if the latest update on the situation to have surfaced over the last 24 hours is anything to go by, then the Blaugrana faithful need not fret.

As per journalist Gerard Romero, speaking on his official Twitch channel:

“You can say Nico to Barcelona is 150% done. It’s inevitable. He will play for Barça next season.”
