Arsenal Pursues Transfer of Nico Williams

News summary

Arsenal is keen on signing Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams as they look to bolster their attacking options before the transfer deadline. Despite the club's interest, Williams prefers to remain in Spain, having recently been awarded the number 10 shirt at Bilbao and aspiring to play for Barcelona. The Gunners are prepared to pay his £49 million release clause but face competition from clubs like Chelsea and Barcelona, as well as challenges due to Williams' high wage demands. Manager Mikel Arteta is also considering alternative options if a deal for Williams does not materialize, potentially targeting a less expensive player who can provide depth. The club's summer transfer activity has been cautious, focusing on quality signings like Mikel Merino and previously identified players without overextending their budget. Ultimately, convincing Williams to leave his boyhood club at this stage could prove difficult, leading Arsenal to explore other avenues.
