Arsenal appear to have expanded their search for a new winger, having been dealt a blow in the race to sign Nico Williams. The 22-year-old winger has been linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium for a while now following his impressive performances for Athletic Club.

Mundo Deportivo report that Barcelona are also in the running to sign Williams and the player’s agent, Felix Tainta, met with Barca’s sporting director, Deco, on Friday. The report claims that the message during the meeting was clear that Williams would be ‘eager’ to join Barca this summer.

TBR Football can exclusively confirm what sources are saying about the current transfer situation of Athletic Bilbao star Nico Williams amid links with Arsenal. The Gunners are looking to strengthen their ranks this summer, particularly in attack, and Williams is very much on Arsenal’s radar.
