Nico Williams
23-Year-Old
Athletic
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Williams appeared in 29 La Liga matches for Athletic during the 2024/25 season, scoring five goals and providing five assists in what was one of his most complete campaigns to date. His pace, dribbling, and improved decision-making in the final third made him a constant threat on the left wing. After signing a contract extension through 2035, he remains central to Athletic Club's long-term plans. Heading into the 2025/26 season, if he can build on his output from the last two campaigns, he should reach double digits in goal contributions and could aim to surpass the 20-goal contribution mark across all competitions, with the Champions League returning to the Basque region.
Starts against Sociedad
Williams (groin) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Williams is fit after passing his testing, with the attacker an option for the starting XI immediately. He remains one of their top players, with four goals and two assists in 21 appearances (16 starts) this season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Tottenham showing interest
Williams is one of the players Tottenham are tracking to bolster their attack in the January transfer window, according to TEAMTalk.
ANALYSIS
Williams would be an excellent signing for the Spurs as they seek to bolster their attacking depth. However, other teams are also keeping close tabs on the Spaniard, mainly Barcelona and Real Madrid. It's hard to see the Spurs winning the transfer race for Williams, so they might be wise to look at other targets instead.
