The website "Fichajes" revealed that English club Liverpool is preparing to make a significant offer to sign Spanish winger Nico Williams, the star of Athletic Bilbao, with a value that could reach 90 million euros, in an attempt to secure his transfer before the start of the 2026 World Cup, where his price is expected to increase further.

The website clarified that Liverpool's management has reopened the file on the player, whom they have been following for a long time, and is now seeking to act quickly before his market value rises. Although Williams' release clause is around 90 million euros, the English club does not wish to pay the full amount and plans to make an initial offer of 75 million euros with some additional incentives.

The report indicated that the player's performance at the start of the season has been affected by muscle injuries, as he has only participated in four matches so far, which has made his future a topic of discussion within Athletic Bilbao, especially with his rising salary and concerning physical record.

The Basque club faces a difficult decision between keeping Williams as one of the cornerstones of coach Ernesto Valverde's project or selling him in light of Liverpool's tempting offer.

The same source confirmed that Liverpool sees Nico Williams as the missing piece in their attack, thanks to his speed and ability to play on the flanks, as coach Arne Slot plans to integrate him into a strong attacking trio that includes Mohamed Salah, Alexander Isak, and Florian Wirtz.

According to the report, the deal is complicated but possible, given Liverpool's desire to finalize negotiations early before other clubs enter the competition.
