PSG working hard to compete for Nico Williams transfer - but they're on the back foot in pursuit of Spain Euro 2024 star

The French champions want to sign the Athletic Club forward as an answer to the impossibly large hole left by the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/kylian-mbappe-burst-santiago-bernabeu-tickets-real-madrid-new-boy-official-presentation-sell-out-insanely-fast/blt46002dd9bf5bfb94" target="_blank">departure of Kylian Mbappe</a>. PSG believe they can persuade Williams to join them, ahead of Barcelona, and are working hard to agree personal terms, <a href="https://x.com/fabricehawkins/status/1817170944256827654?s=46&amp;t=Of7Uo1vGvABBwLqkjtl9xw" target="_blank">according to RMC Sport journalist Fabrice Hawkins</a>. They also remain interested in Jadon Sancho and want to sign the Englishman as well as Williams, despite suggestions that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jadon-sancho-looking-lively-man-utd-pre-season-tour-former-outcast-impress-amid-transfer-uncertainty/blt50f749ac9862297f" target="_blank">the former may remain at Manchester United </a>this season.

WHAT HAPPENED?

PSG appear to be fighting a losing battle as Barcelona edge closer and closer to getting their man. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/barcelona-nico-williams-pursuit-deco-meets-spain-athletic-club-agent-see-off-competition-from-chelsea-arsenal/blt541c88938a11567b" target="_blank">Deco has already met with the player's agent</a> and are <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/barcelona-ready-to-trigger-nico-williams-release-clause-to-lure-spain-hero-from-athletic-club/bltea60bba8c84e0030" target="_blank">working to trigger the release clause in Williams' contract</a>. Even if Barcelona are unable to complete the deal, the Parisians will still have to see off Arsenal and Chelsea - who are reportedly exploring the possibility of signing the 22-year-old.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Nico Williams' exploits for Spain at the European Championship have made him one of the world's most sought-after players. But his older brother Inaki - who also plays for Athletic Club - chose to represent Ghana at international level rather than Spain. Unlike his brother, who looks set to depart the Basque side, Inaki has remained at Athletic Club his whole career.

DID YOU KNOW?

Williams is currently on holiday following his scintillating European Championship campaign while his agents work their way through the list of clubs keen on acquiring his services. While Barcelona lead the race for his signature, PSG, Arsenal and Chelsea will not be giving up hope just yet.
