Real Madrid Confidencial Guti speaks out loud and clear about Nico Williams's signing, upset: 'Not my son...'
The former Real Madrid footballer spoke about the possible arrival of the winger at FC Barcelona
Everyone is starting to take for granted the signing of Nico Williams by FC Barcelona. His more than likely arrival to the culé squad sparked a debate in the latest edition of "El Chiringuito" about values and professional ambition. In this case, José María Gutiérrez, better known as "Guti," shared an opinion that has gone quite viral in recent hours.
The former Real Madrid footballer and current panelist on "El Chiringuito" made it clear that there are players who can find themselves limited at Athletic Club. "If we're talking about feelings... I love Athletic's philosophy, but in this case I don't share it", he commented.
"There are players who, because of their quality, will never leave Athletic and others who, because of their quality, deserve to be at a big club. They're limited. What they want in their lives is to keep growing", "Guti" explained.
Guti's reflection on Athletic Club's behavior
"What is the feeling of Athletic Club and its fans when they tell a player who was at Athletic Club 'I don't want you anymore'?", he asked. "What is the feeling? Damn, if it's my son. Would I kick my son out of my house?", he questioned again.
"I would never kick my son out of my house, I would keep him. If he's not good enough, well. But he's my son", "Guti" emphasized.
"I'm saying this for both sides because that's how it is for both sides. Athletic players are more limited and, in the end, what one wants for their only life is to keep growing. Let's not just focus on those who leave and let's also talk about those to whom Athletic closes the door", "Guti" clarified.
Nico Williams closer to FC Barcelona
According to the latest reports, Barça would already have the signing of Nico Williams practically secured for next season. In fact, according to "Mundo Deportivo," the Basque footballer would have already expressed his desire to the top officials of Athletic Club.
In addition, the aforementioned outlet also reported that Barça will make the payment of the release clause on July 1 or 2. The culé club will make a payment of 58 million euros plus 4 million euros of CPI.
