Arsenal Renew Pursuit of Spain’s World Cup Hero Nico Williams

Arsenal have reopened talks for Athletic Club winger Nico Williams as they seek a marquee addition on the left under Mikel Arteta. The Gunners turned to Williams after other targets slipped away, according to recent reports. Sporting director Andrea Berta has held preliminary discussions about the Spain international’s availability. Williams impressed off the bench in Spain’s World Cup final win over Argentina and has been viewed as one of Europe’s most exciting wide forwards. Despite injury setbacks that limited him to 20 LaLiga starts, the 23-year-old bounced back in time to earn a new long-term deal at Athletic Club. His contract includes a release clause of around £77 million, which would remain within Arsenal’s reach if they decide to move.
