Barcelona has ended negotiations with Spanish-born Ghanaian winger Nico Williams due to the player’s indecision, according to sources who spoke to EFE.
With the start of the championship less than a week away, the La Liga club has decided it can no longer wait for the winger’s response.
The club had initially set last weekend as the deadline for a decision. However, sources close to the negotiations revealed that there had been no response from the player’s camp.
This lack of indecision has led Barcelona to throw in the towel and look for other alternatives, with Bayern Munich’s Kingsley Coman reportedly under consideration.
Despite initial talks with the player’s agent to lay the groundwork for a contract, the transfer saga appears to be over. Barcelona now aims to swiftly address its attacking needs elsewhere, as the new season looms. The decision comes after Athletic Bilbao assigned Williams a new squad number, indicating their intention to retain the player.
