Premier League club Arsenal also held strong interest in bringing Nico Williams to their team for the next season. However, it appears his move to Barcelona is now very likely to happen. This expected transfer has altered Arsenal’s plans.
With their initial target seemingly unavailable, Arsenal’s attention has reportedly turned elsewhere. According to Diario AS on Saturday, the English side is now focusing their sights on Real Madrid’s attacking player, Rodrygo.
