Athletic Bilbao is considering offering a new contract to Spanish-Ghanaian winger Nico Williams.

As Athletic continues its summer preparations, all eyes are on star player Nico Williams, especially after his stellar performance in the European Championship, which attracted FC Barcelona's interest.

Despite a lucrative offer from PSG, Nico Williams is likely to stay at San Mamés.

Athletic are keen to secure Nico Williams, even though he is contracted until 2027. According to Mundo Deportivo, the club plans to enhance his salary and include a termination clause reflecting his current performance.

The current 58 million euros buyout clause is below his market value. Nico renewed his contract on December 1, and Athletic aims to repeat this soon.
