We may be witnessing one of the biggest embarrassments in Barça's history, and it was hard to outdo themselves. Even though they were certain about signing Nico Williams for this summer, that won't be the case. Athletic has announced his contract renewal until 2035, confirming that he will stay in Lezama (Lezama).

It has happened to them again, even though he was supposedly desperate to play for Barça, or at least that's what they said. The truth is that Athletic has posted a video in which Nico announced his decision. He won't join the blaugrana side, which once again is exposed for being so sure about it.

This already happened to them last summer when they claimed that they had reached an agreement with Nico Williams. Weeks went by and it finally became clear that it had never existed. However, they kept insisting on the same thing, coming up with endless excuses.

For this transfer window, they tried again and from Barcelona they once again claimed the signing of Nico was certain. However, the same thing has happened again, and it's looking more and more complicated. The announcement of his transfer never came, and in the end, the one that did come was his contract renewal.

Nico Williams exposes the lies of the Culers

After announcing Nico Williams's renewal with Athletic, it's time to call out the Culers. Some claimed that the Spanish international had called Barça to sign. That is now in doubt after seeing the announcement video.

"When it's time to make decisions, for me what matters most is the heart", Nico began by saying. If there was any doubt, he finished with: "I'm where I want to be, with my people, this is my home." Yet the Culer press claimed a few hours ago that the footballer's entourage had accepted his move to Barça.

Jota Jordi also said that on July 1 the Culers would pay Nico's release clause. All lies to try to cover up the blaugrana reality in a new historic embarrassment. Although this time, they've managed to break their own record in a humiliating way.
