Nico Williams responds to transfer rumours

The 21-year-old is dazzling for Spain at Euro 2024. He has a goal and an assist in three games to help push the country to the quarter-final, where they will face host Germany.

Rumours about his future have not stopped, with Sport reporting that he will favour a move to Barcelona over the Premier League clubs, as the Blaugrana are keen to add him to their ranks.

Speaking during a press conference, he brushed aside the idea of discussing his future, suspending it until after Euro 2024.

“Everything that comes from outside is good, it means I’m doing my job well—every kid dreams of being noticed by big clubs. I’m focused on doing well at the European Championship, and whatever comes after that, I’ll find out because these days I’m totally disconnected,” he said.

According to Football London, it is unlikely he will join Chelsea. The Blues are unwilling to go through with the deal because of the €55 million transfer fee and salary involved.
