Athletic Club left stunned by Nico Williams’ meeting with Deco to discuss Barcelona transfer

Barcelona sporting director Deco’s recent meeting with Nico Williams’ agent to discuss a potential transfer to Catalunya has reportedly left Athletic Club shocked and stunned.

Williams is said to have asked his agent to approach Barcelona to see if the Catalan giants are still keen on adding him this summer and has also spoken with Hansi Flick already.

According to Diario Sport, Ernesto Valverde’s side “could not believe that the meeting” had actually taken place.

The report claims Felix Tainta, Williams’ agent, had wanted to keep the meeting secret and had said he was going to Barca to see friends but it’s been reported he met Deco instead.
