Nico Williams has been heavily linked to Arsenal in recent months. When Andrea Berta was tapped in as the new sporting director of Arsenal last month, signing Williams was one of the tasks, English media reported. Now the 22-year-old will show off on the ball island, in what looks like an impossible task against Manchester United. The Athletic Club star is still brimming with confidence.
The La Liiga club goes out on the pitch at Old Trafford with three goals in the red after the first Europa League semi-final, Williams goes out on the spring-green English grass as anything but a loser-on-advance. He takes inspiration from a 17-year-old Barcelona friend.

“Hopefully I can play like Yamal has done, score a goal and get my brother (Iñaki Williams, striker) and the others to help me. We bet everything. It looks difficult. We were all very excited. Now we have an important mission: We have to storm Old Trafford and try to play our best to advance. I think we will deliver a good performance. We are as good as Manchester United. We give everything we have, and if we do what we can, everything can go our way,” Williams told DAZN.
