00:00This might just be Barcelona's most exciting transfer in a long time and I'm talking since they signed Neymar.
00:05Nico Williams is only 22 years old and 58 million euros sounds like a lot of money but in today's market is it really that much?
00:12He's not just quick but he's got a smart footballing IQ so he's able to play across the front three whilst also being able to create chances in small spaces.
00:19Now this is something that Barcelona will be very thankful for with the amount of quality they've got in their ranks.
00:23His story is pretty cool too because his brother used to play for the same club, Athletic Club.
00:27Inaki was a very very talented player. Whilst Inaki chose Ghana, Nico's chosen Spain and he's going to create his own legacy.
00:33He's just one of those raw talents that's waiting to explode at a big club and we've seen it on the international stage for Spain especially.
00:39Natural chemistry with Jamal is going to be absolutely key to that.
00:42Last year we saw him help Athletic Club to their first Copa del Rey in 40 years.
00:46This big game experience is going to help Barcelona go from being this young talented squad into trophy winners like we know that they could be.
00:52And as we know Arsenal and Bayern Munich have been desperate to secure his services all the way through this summer and windows just passed.
00:59So Barcelona had some serious competition but Williams was ready to take a pay cut just to join Barca.
01:04So this signing isn't just about talent. This is about Barcelona rebuilding and becoming the club that they once were like we all know that they are.
01:10If Nico Williams hits his potential well we could well be seeing their smartest signing probably since the Neymar days and that's not an exaggeration.
