Several weeks after Nico Williams' contract extension at Athletic Bilbao , ending his possibility of joining FC Barcelona , this case continues to be talked about. This time, the Catalan daily Sport brings new information by revealing that a manager contacted the 23-year-old player to ask him to "drop" his agent Félix Tainta and be "represented by Jorge Mendes or Pini Zahavi" .
A request that would have deeply outraged the Williams family, very close to Tainta, and which would have destroyed all the progress that existed in the negotiations between Athletic and Barça. The Catalan team, for its part, accused Tainta of slowing down the negotiations with the Basque club from the moment the latter showed itself ready to extend the Spanish winger's contract and to increase his contract value. Also according to Sport , Barcelona's concern had grown as a slot at the Barcelona hospital had already been reserved for the medical. In any case, Nico Williams is now tied to the club of his city until 2035.
