Bayern Munich is actively seeking alternatives as their top target, Nico Williams, expresses a strong desire to join FC Barcelona. Recent discussions between Williams’ agent, Felix Tainta, and Barcelona’s sporting director, Deco, have accelerated the potential transfer to the Catalan club. Despite initial reluctance from Barcelona’s president, Joan Laporta, the club is now keen to secure the signing of the Athletic Bilbao winger, who is eager for the move. With a release clause of €58 million plus adjustments, Barcelona is assessing the financial feasibility of the deal, as Athletic Club insists on a lump-sum payment. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich, previously linked to the 22-year-old, is considering other winger options, including Bradley Barcola, Kaoru Mitoma, Rafael Leao, and Cody Gakpo, acknowledging the challenges in acquiring Williams. Arsenal and Chelsea have also reduced their interest, leaving Barcelona as the frontrunner for the Spanish international.
Is Bayern Munich moving on from Nico Williams to other targets?
