That is interesting news about Nico Williams and Barcelona. It really looks like deal is moving forward especially since he is reportedly looking for home in Barcelona.

The deal between Nico Williams and Barcelona should be reached because Nico Williams has said his intention to move to Barcelona. However, it is not only about the agreement between Barcelona and Nico Williams, Barcelona must also reach an agreement with Bilbao. Few days ago, I heard that Barcelona agreed with the transfer fees about €60 million. I don't know that it is official statement from Barcelona or not.

Main problem seems to be how money will be paid. Athletic wants all money at once but Barcelona wants to pay in smaller amounts over time. This is not surprising because Barcelona is known to have money problems. It will be interesting to see how they sort this out to finish transfer.

As far as I know, the release clause is around €58m. But Bilbao should ask a bigger amount of money. If Barcelona wants to pay lower than €58m, I think Bilbao will reject it. It is true that Barcelona probably still have a problem with their financial although they won 2 major trophies last season. Moreover, Barcelona needs money to build their defense line, too. It is rumored that some defenders leaving Barcelona during the transfer windows.
