It seems that the transfer drama about Nico Williams is far from been over. I thought it was over when a key figure in Barca management, Victor Font, said it was impossible to bring in the Spanish winger. Also, the signing of Dani Olmo indicated that Barca has given up on Nico. From the latest news, the young player wants to come to Barca, and Joan Laporta wants to make it happen by all means. And considering the club's financial problems, he is willing to sell players like Julian Araujo, Clement Lenglet, Mikayil Faye, and Vitor Roque to make this deal happen. Hansi Flick wants to build a team that will be able to put up a good fight against the dominance of Real Madrid and players like Nico Williams are good fighters to make that happen.
Barcelona can accept with attacking players they have and only need to look for another striker for preparation of replacing Lewandowski in next seasons. Other attacking players in Barcelona are good enough and if they still have money, they can try to strengthen their defense system.
Barcelona in finance, is not good so if they overpay money for buying players especially for positions are not too necessary, they will put their finance into worse condition. With their bad finance, they need to be careful with any decision on transfer purchase and player salary. Playing well is good but they need to have back up plans for seasons they can not play well and income will be affected. They need to aim at two purposes, acceptable results, and improvement on finance with time.
With Nico Williams, Barcelona don't need to buy this player and it makes sense if they give up on this transfer after some negotiation with Bilbao.
