There is a better offer in the new contract that Nico Williams has so that makes him stay at Bilbao especially this is also a situation that could have been better because by being at Bilbao at least he does not have to think about competition for the line-up because he certainly already has his own place in the squad.
He is still very young for now so there are still many opportunities to be at a big club later, even though in terms of statistics and strength Bilbao is still below some big clubs in La Liga but that should be an opportunity for Nico Williams to make him more interesting in the performance he does because if his consistency is maintained, sooner or later more big clubs will want his services.
The next destination of Nico Williams is not clear yet and we can't make sure if Nico Williams will stay in Bilbao or if he is going to leave. Recently he posted a video supporting his team and people said he was forced to do that and some other people think he will stay in Bilbao until he ends his contract.
The last news about Nico Williams and his situation is about this player being absent in the game they are going to have in Germany against Stuttgart and it seems Ernesto Valverde doesn't want to use this player anymore because of the rumors about him leaving the team.
The situation is currently a little unclear after there were some videos saying that Nico was ready with Atletico but in other rumors it was said that Nico had a personal agreement with Barcelona.
The news has become blurred after I was pretty sure that Nico would stay at Bilbao. But even so I think this rumor is really just a sweetener because after all for now especially when Barcelona have made a deal with Dani Olmo then it must be very difficult for them to bring a player of Nico's caliber at a price that is quite expensive at this time.
The value of Nico Williams is still the same where 70 million is a price that cannot be lowered again for now especially with the performance he showed at the Euros then it is clear that 70 million is an inviolable price and Barcelona will have difficulty with that price.
