HERE WE GO ✅: Big presentation coming up as Arsenal set to announce the most expensive signing of the summer,bid approved, Medical date fixed as deal will be completed today

According to an Arsenal insider, the club is set to meet with a “world-class” player this week in an effort to persuade him to join during the summer transfer window.

While Arsenal is still in negotiations with Bologna for the transfer of Riccardo Calafiori, they are also believed to be in talks to sign an attacker. This update comes from an Arsenal insider who has shared the latest on the club’s pursuit of a highly sought-after Euro 2024 star.

The insider, Team News and Tix, revealed that Arsenal is making a significant effort to sign Spain and Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams. “I’ve heard rumors we were due to speak to Nico Williams this week to see if there is any chance of persuading him to join us,” the insider shared on Patreon. “The rumor was we have prepared a Rice-like presentation. I spoke to someone at the club who reiterated we absolutely love him and will take a chance if we get it.”

Williams has a £50m release clause in his contract, attracting interest from top clubs across Europe, including Barcelona, Chelsea, and Newcastle United. The winger, who scored in the Euro 2024 final against England, has been described as “world-class” by Optus Sport.

Williams had an outstanding season with Bilbao, scoring eight goals and providing 19 assists, showcasing his elite playmaking abilities—an area where Arsenal could use some reinforcement. Known for his speed and skill in one-on-one duels, Williams primarily plays off the left, meaning he would compete directly with Gabriel Martinelli if he joins Arsenal.

In other news, a £105m “superstar” that Arsenal wanted to sign has just agreed to join PSG this summer.
