'Is it a bluff? Really? Chairman Varsha's confidence 'Our finances can now be recruited by Williams'



'Is it a bluff? Really? Chairman Varsha's confidence 'Our finances can now be recruited by Williams'
"Barcelona can afford to sign Williams."

It was the confidence of Barcelona President Juan Laporta. Williams is a Spanish supernova. Williams, who showed his talent early on, jumped to the starting lineup from the 2021-2022 season. His skills were in full bloom last season. He scored 5 goals-11 assists in 31 league games. Spain's Primera Liga ranked second in assists. He led Athletic Bilbao to the championship with a strong performance in Copadelay.

Williams has not only delicate techniques but also mobility. It is evaluated that he has a good defense capability. He also has excellent kick ability. Based on this performance, he was also named in the Spanish national team for Euro 2024. Williams played a key role and helped his team advance to the semifinals.



Naturally, big clubs lined up. With English Premier League teams such as Liverpool and Chelsea active, Barcelona also jumped in.

Barcelona plans to transplant Lamine Yamal and Williams wings, just like they do with Spain's national team. The problem is money. Barcelona, as it is known, has a financial problem. The reason why he broke up with coach Xavi Hernandez, who showed a residual angle, was also due to the difference in perspective in the financial sector. Barcelona are still in trouble despite their continued efforts and have even come to the point where they have to sell their main players. In this situation, recruiting Williams is inevitably a burden. Fortunately, his buyout is 58 million euros, which is not that big compared to other top-flight players.



Perhaps because of Williams' buyout, Laporta expressed confidence in recruiting. He appeared on radio Catalonia on the 9th (Korea time) and voiced his voice, `We can afford to recruit Williams.' Then "I like Williams a lot. The decor director is working on recruiting. I hope we have good news"We are now in a state of recovery enough to bring in these great players"
