Didac Aguirre Nico Williams is from Real Madrid: the player's hint after rejecting FC Barcelona
The gesture Real Madrid received from Nico Williams after he once again rejected Barcelona
During the past few weeks, many rumors indicated that Barcelona would manage to sign Nico Williams. The Athletic Club forward, who turned down becoming a culé last season, has once again rejected the blaugrana club. By signing his contract extension with Athletic Club, Nico Williams also started following Real Madrid players.
On his Instagram account, Nico follows several current players, former players, and legends of Real Madrid. The most notable are Huijsen, Rüdiger, Mbappé, Carvajal, Marco Asensio, Joselu, Fran García, Marcelo, and Nacho Fernández. This is clear evidence that, despite Barcelona's attempts, Nico has always preferred to be part of Real Madrid.
Even though he has extended his contract with Athletic until 2035, Nico's nod to Real Madrid hasn't gone unnoticed. The merengue club, known for signing the best players in the world, could be Nico's destination in a future transfer window.
Nico Williams's priority
Since the beginning of the transfer window, Barcelona tried again to sign Nico Williams as they did last summer. Trusting they'd succeed because of their supposed "financial well-being," Barcelona never managed to complete the deal. Athletic Club fought for weeks to keep a player who always had his decision quite clear.
Having developed in Athletic's youth academy since 2013, Nico Williams has a deep love for the team. Despite having won only one Copa del Rey since joining the first team in 2021, Nico made it clear that he wants to keep achieving success with the club.
Barcelona, once again, has been left embarrassed after claiming the signing of a player who never considered being part of the club. This whole situation has shown that, to date, no important player is looking to be part of Barcelona.
A dream for the future
Although Nico Williams has appeared quite happy with his contract extension, a future departure can't be completely ruled out. For a player as talented as Nico Williams, the only possible destination is to be part of the best club in the world: Real Madrid.
