Bayern Munich not giving up on Barcelona top target; offering a net salary of €12 million | OneFootball

The future of Nico Williams remains a hot topic in the transfer market, with Barcelona emerging as the favourite to sign the Spanish forward.

The Catalans reportedly have a personal agreement in place with Nico over a summer switch to Camp Nou, but the deal is far from completed.

In fact, Barcelona are facing renewed pressure from Bayern Munich in the race to sign the Athletic Club winger.

According to Florian Plettenberg, Bayern Munich remain determined to bring in Nico Williams this summer, having already missed out on Florian Wirtz to Liverpool.

The Sky Sports journalist adds that Bayern have submitted a new offer in the past 48 hours, looking to woo the explosive forward.

This aggressive move is part of Bayern’s strategy to capitalise on any potential hurdles Barça might face, hoping that the Catalans’ financial or registration issues could cause their deal to collapse.

However, the player’s stance remains a crucial advantage for Barcelona. Nico Williams, after all, is currently not engaging in personal talks with Bayern Munich.

His priority is clear: he is waiting for Barcelona to finalise an agreement with Athletic Club, which is indicative of his commitment to the Blaugrana project.

That said, the offer from Bayern Munich will undoubtedly put pressure on Barcelona as they look to close out the deal as soon as possible.

The coming days, to that end, could prove to be critical as Barcelona look to conjure up enough funds to meet the player’s €62 million release clause.
