Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly joined Barcelona in the race to sign Athletic Bilbao winger, Nico Williams.
The Spain international has been strongly linked with a move to Barcelona.
Williams is also said to favour a move to the Blaugurana.
Barca have already put up a contract offer for the 22-year-old Spaniard and are expecting a positive answer from the Athletic Bilbao.
Premier League teams have also showed interest in Williams. Arsenal and Chelsea are eager to sign him, but they believe the procedure to do so would be too costly.

According to The Athletic as echoed by Barca Universal PSG have expressed interest in luring Williams to the Parc Des Princes.
The Ligue 1 champions have already initiated preliminary discussions regarding the prospect of acquiring the winger, whose deal with the Basque club expires in 2027 and include a release clause valued at approximately €58 million.
To fill the void of Kylian Mbappe’s departure, PSG are looking to add a new forward to their lineup.
Although they temporarily considered Barcelona star Lamine Yamal, it appears that they are now more interested in Williams.
The 22-year-old played in all but one match for Spain as they claim title at the 2024 European Championship in Germany, scoring 2 goals including one against England in the final and provided an assist.
The tricky winger also featured in 37 matches for Bilbao in the 2023/24 season.
He scored eight goals and delivered 19 assists as the Basque club won the Copa del Rey.

@MONKEY POST e don do nah, Osimhen has learned his lesson and if nt before he have definitely apologised to Finidi by now especially after all that have been transpiring in his life since the IG debacle. Cut the guy some slack Finidi is not God oo, and he himself (Finidi) did not have the best intentions for Nigerian ball.

How do we know he has apologised or learn his lesson..let him do it on social media same way he disrespected finidi
Contract or no contract the dude is racking up millions every month and you are on your phone standing for what is right, have you finished standing for what is right in Nigeria with what is happening every where ? You sounds like a joke bro, worry about yourself and leave the guy alone.
