Nico Williams has been linked with Real Madrid, Arsenal and Liverpool but reports suggest his priority is Madrid. The 23-year-old Athletic Bilbao winger has 183 senior appearances with 34 goals and 33 assists, and won Euro 2024. Liverpool reportedly considered a 95 million euro bid, yet sources question the claim's reliability after the recent contract renewal in July 2025.
For the Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams, fresh transfer speculation has once again linked him with Europe’s biggest clubs, but the reality appears more complex than the headlines suggest. A Spanish report has claimed that the 23-year-old prefers a move to Real Madrid despite interest from Liverpool and Arsenal.
Williams is already an established figure at Athletic, having made 183 first-team appearances, scoring 34 goals and providing 33 assists. He was also part of Spain’s Euro 2024 winning squad, underlining his growing reputation. According to the report, Liverpool are preparing a massive €95 million offer as they look ahead to life after Mohamed Salah, who is 33 and out of contract in 2027.
Arsenal are also said to be actively pursuing Williams, viewing his pace and dribbling as ideal for breaking down compact defences. However, the same source insists that Williams’ desire is clear, with Real Madrid his preferred destination and a willingness to wait for the right moment.
