Why NICO WILLIAMS is a Perfect for FC Barcelona 😱

Why NICO WILLIAMS is INSANE 😱

Nico Williams has become an absolute sensation at Euro 2024 and one of the brightest players of the new wave!

Why is this 21-year-old so ready to join Barcelona's first team, why could he be a key factor in Furia Roja's triumph at the European Championships, what top clubs are interested in his services, and why might we never have known about a performer like Nico Williams?

Make yourself comfortable, as we are about to begin!

Nico conquered Italy

Nico Williams has MADE HIMSELF KNOWN TO THE WHOLE WORLD! It happened during the match against Italy!

11 dribbling attempts, a neutralized Di Lorenzo, and, basically, an assist for Calafiori's own goal - as a result, Nico deservedly got selected as MOTM!

Williams Jr showed that he is a superb dribbling and sprinting machine who is almost impossible to stop! Up to that point, no one has dribbled so often when competing in Euro 2024, especially in a battle against the reigning European champions! Indeed, Nico knows no fear!

'Even at 21, Williams has shown the maturity and composure to knit together his various strengths - the acceleration, the technique, the courage - and perform in front of Europe's watching eyes. It's one thing to have the talent, it's another to channel it in unison,' that’s how 90min journalist Sean Walsh described Nico's impressive display.

The Whoscored statistical portal labeled La Roja winger's performance as 'phenomenal', demonstrating the player's match stats: 4 key passes, 1 big chance created, 8 touches in opposition box, 4 successful dribbles, 3 accurate crosses, 5 ground duels won - it's simply incredible, given the level of the clash!

As you can see, the hype around Nico is REAL! After the game, ESPN FC reminded everyone that the beast's "release clause" is just $50 million, which is a bargain in today's market situation!

Despite all the success, Williams Jr still remains a very humble guy. Once he received the MOTM award, he claimed:

"This is going to be a nice gift for my mum!"

A moment like 'this' is something his mother Maria could hardly have imagined 31 years ago when she was illegally crossing the Melilla fence, a 10-metre-tall metal barrier that separates Spain from Morocco in the North African Spanish city of the same name. "My parents left Ghana and crossed the Sahara desert barefoot to get to Spain," shares Nico's older brother Inaki.

Again, this moment of success marks a huge step up for the progress of Nico, who did not grow up in luxury conditions and accomplished everything on his own.

"The coach asked me to face up, to be myself, to play my game," Nico elaborates on instructions from Spain's manager Luis de la Fuente.

"We work like animals on the football pitch. We are looking for sensations and big things to happen at this tournament!" the winger conveys the squad's overall mood.

"We have a well-defined game plan, and the coach has explained to us very clearly what each player has to do. We want to reach the final," sounds like a rather loud statement from Nico.

Williams Jr is a team player - that's exactly what he said after receiving the MOTM award:

"The first thing my teammates did was applaud me in the locker room. I'm proud to be here and to continue to develop in this area. I would like to thank my teammates for helping me with their abilities".

The guy surely keeps in touch with reality and is only focused on the result, which has been impressive so far!

With the first two rounds now over, Nico is already being called one of Furia Roja's two main stars alongside Lamine Yamal - Marca newspaper aptly called them 'two Ferraris'. Nico was totally terrorising Di Lorenzo as well as the whole Italy squad, while also emerging as one of the best dribblers in the ongoing European Championship! His speed and goal-scoring abilities are a real nightmare for opposing defenders and this is only the beginning of his career...

Nico and Lamine - Spain and Barcelona's present and future!

'Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal, fantastic performance from both. Future,' Fabrizio Romano wrote after the Spain vs Italy tie.

'The best wing pairing in the tournament?' asks TNT Sports, attaching stunning stats of both.

"Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams play as if they are in the park with their friends. The potential that these youngsters have is incredible," Marc Cucurella notes about the stellar duo.

Spain's wingers really are one of the tournament's gems, and if everyone is already terrified of a 16-year-old schoolboy and a 21-year-old monster from Bilbao, then what can we expect from these same beasts in the near future? It's a rhetorical question, of course! Only sky is the limit!

And what if these monsters decide to play for the same club? Chances of this happening are growing every day, since Nico is Barcelona's No. 1 transfer priority for strengthening the left-forward position.
