Barcelona president Joan Laporta has been asked once again by fans to try and sign Nico Williams from Athletic Club this summer.
Supporters were heard asking Laporta to buy Spain’s Euro 2024 star at the Gamper Trophy game against Monaco on Monday night.Laporta, who has previously insisted the club can afford Nico, was a little more downbeat this time around. Indeed his response said it all as he replied simply: “We already have a good squad.”
Barca’s hopes of signing Williams appear to have faded in recent days. The forward has been handed the No. 10 shirt at Athletic Club, and the rumor mill is already talking about other possible options for Barcelona.
It remains to be seen what will happen next and whether Barca will still look to spend before the transfer window closes. In the meantime, the team are due to kick off their La Liga season at the weekend when they take on Valencia.
