Spanish press reports revealed the striker who will succeed Polish Robert Lewandowski in the Barcelona attack next season.
Lewandowski’s contract with Barcelona expires at the end of next season, and it is possible that his contract will not be renewed, as he will then reach his 37th year.
The player is not experiencing his best seasons with Barcelona and it is possible that he will leave at the end of the season for the Saudi League.
According to the Spanish newspaper “Sport”, the Catalan team is interested in including Spanish Neco Williams, the Athletic Bilbao striker, to be Lewandowski’s successor in the Barcelona attack.
The newspaper added that Barcelona’s interest in Williams has not ended, despite the renewal of his contract with Bilbao until the summer of 2027, as Laporta sees it as the most important deal for Barcelona in the coming years.
The newspaper confirmed that the player has a strong relationship with Barcelona’s young stars, which brings him closer to moving to Barcelona in the coming period, especially since he will form a historic duo with the talented star Lamine Yamal.
Williams has a release clause in his contract worth 50 million euros, and the Catalan club intends to submit an offer to include him, after adjusting his economic conditions.
