BREAKING: Real Madrid Consider Triggering €58m Release Clause for Nico Williams in Stunning Summer Move — Major Blow to Arteta’s Side

Real Madrid are reportedly preparing a summer move for Arsenal target Nico Williams.
 

The 22-year-old winger has been heavily linked with a move away from Athletic Bilbao, with Arsenal, Barcelona, and Chelsea all reportedly keen.

Speculation over the Spain international's future began as early as last summer, but he chose to stay at the La Liga club for another season.

Now, with Williams expected to move on this summer, another European giant has entered the race.

According to an exclusive from Marca, Real Madrid are seriously interested in signing Williams once the transfer window opens.

Los Blancos are believed to be considering triggering his €58 million release clause.

The news comes as a major blow to Mikel Arteta's side, with Williams identified as the Gunners' top target to strengthen the left-wing position.

However, a move for the Athletic star would most likely pave the way for Real Madrid winger Rodrygo to leave the club — a player Arsenal are also reportedly eyeing this summer.
