Barcelona reaches agreement with Nico Williams for long-term contract and high salary
Nico Williams is Barcelona's final choice for their new winger, having reached an agreement with him for a transfer to Camp Nou.
“This Friday, the player will sign a contract with Barça for the next six seasons, until June 30, 2031, in a private ceremony at the FC Barcelona offices.”
Garcia, who returned from vacation earlier this week, announced his departure from Espanyol on Friday morning before Barcelona officially confirmed his arrival.
Widely regarded as one of La Liga’s standout goalkeepers last season, Garcia was Espanyol’s standout performer, playing a pivotal role in securing their top-flight status.
Barcelona moved swiftly to finalize an agreement with the player and pay the €25 million clause.
The 24-year-old Spaniard marks Barcelona’s first signing of the summer, crossing the city from their fierce rivals, Espanyol.
