Nico Williams has spoken out about his decision to sign a new long-term contract at Athletic Club and snub a move to Barcelona this summer.
The Spain star had looked set for Barcelona, after asking his agent to talk to the club about a move, but ended up penning an extension instead in a shock development.
Williams has now been asked about his decision and says he wants to make history with the Basque side.
“I think we have a very long season ahead of us. We have very ambitious titles like the Champions League, which everyone would like to play in,” he told reporters.
“hat could be better than doing it with the club of my life? I would like to continue making history here at San Mamés, with the fans, with my family, and with a lot of enthusiasm.”
In the meantime Barcelona continue to look for an alternative option, with Marcus Rashford and Luis Diaz the club’s current targets.
