It seems that the transfer drama about Nico Williams is far from been over. I thought it was over when a key figure in Barca management, Victor Font, said it was impossible to bring in the Spanish winger. Also, the signing of Dani Olmo indicated that Barca has given up on Nico. From the latest news, the young player wants to come to Barca, and Joan Laporta wants to make it happen by all means. And considering the club's financial problems, he is willing to sell players like Julian Araujo, Clement Lenglet, Mikayil Faye, and Vitor Roque to make this deal happen. Hansi Flick wants to build a team that will be able to put up a good fight against the dominance of Real Madrid and players like Nico Williams are good fighters to make that happen.
It is understandable that Barcelona are having difficulty bringing in this young Bilbao winger, even if Williams is willing to leave, which means Barcelona must release some of their players in this transfer window. But what confuses me is why Barcelona brought in Dani Olmo, because what they really need right now is not Olmo's position. My guess is, if Barcelona is indeed planning to release some of its players, it could be at the end of this transfer window or next season. What is clear is that bringing Nico Williams to Camp Nou has many obstacles for Barcelona at this time, although Laporta has said that he will try to make it happen. Well, the transfer window only has a little time left and I'm not sure if Barcelona will recruit several other players whose transfer values are quite expensive. At most, the option of borrowing players is a step that Barcelona can take safely. But there is something interesting, under Hansi Flick's guidance Barcelona has the potential to return to its philosophy. It can be said like an old saying, total football. I want to see how far Flick can take Barcelona.
