Premier League
Nico Williams, a 24-year-old winger for Athletic Club, is once again one of the prominent names in the transfer market. Arsenal has reactivated contacts to consider his signing, while Liverpool also maintains interest, although the London club's offensive is more advanced. The release clause of the Spanish international amounts to £77 million (around €90 million), a sum affordable for several Premier League clubs.
The future of Nico Williams is once again moving away from San Mamés. After renewing his contract with Athletic Club until 2035, the winger has a clause that allows his departure if any club pays the full amount. This situation has reignited the interest of various English teams in this summer market.
Arsenal speeds up for Nico Williams
Arsenal has taken new steps to assess the incorporation of Nico Williams. According to the latest information, the sporting director, Andrea Berta, has resumed contacts to analyze the economic viability of the operation and to determine if the club can afford both the payment of the clause and the player's salary conditions.
The Spanish international has returned to the list of priorities for Mikel Arteta's team after other offensive options lost strength. The London club believes that the winger's profile fits their search for a player capable of acting on the left flank and providing imbalance in one-on-one situations.
The £77 million release clause represents a significant outlay, but not beyond the reach of a club like Arsenal, which sees the operation as a strategic investment to bolster their attack.

Liverpool remains attentive to the Premier League market
Liverpool also features among the clubs interested in Nico Williams, although their position differs. Anfield's entity continues to monitor the player's situation, but has not yet reached the level of progress seen in the talks led by Arsenal.
Competition within the Premier League could intensify if new suitors willing to trigger the clause emerge. The price set in the player's contract makes the operation a matter of financial capability and convincing the player with an attractive sporting project.
Meanwhile, Athletic Club maintains a clear stance: as it is a release clause, any departure will depend on the full payment of that amount and agreement between Nico Williams and the buying club.
The next step depends on Nico Williams' decision
The market now enters a decisive phase for Nico Williams. Arsenal will continue to assess the feasibility of the signing after the contacts made by Andrea Berta, while Liverpool remains vigilant for any developments. If any of the Premier League clubs decide to trigger the £77 million clause, it will be Nico Williams himself who will have the final say on his next destination.
