Barcelona are moving quickly to sign Spain's Euro 2024 star Nico Williams from Athletic Bilbao.

Rudy Galetti says the left-winger is keen on moving to Barca, and is willing to put pen to paper on a five-year deal.

He is expected to pocket a salary in the region of €9m to €10m per season.

Williams has been one of Spain's best players at the Euros, and has managed to attract the interest of several English giants.

Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea have all been linked with a summer move for the 22-year-old winger.

But despite being linked with a move abroad, Athletic president Jon Uriarte has stressed the player's commitment to the club.

Williams' current deal with the Bilbao-based club is valid until June 2027.
