Asisat Oshoala drops hint on Nico Williams' next club after impressive display against Georgia

Bay FC striker Asisat Oshoala heaped praise on Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams after his impressive performance against Georgia in the European Championship.

The 21-year-old scored as Spain thumped Georgia 4-1 in the round of 16 in Cologne. The youngster scored La Roja's third goal on the night after Georgia had taken an early lead in the 18th minute.

The younger brother of Ghana's Inaki Williams has been one of the standout young talents at the Euros, alongside teammates Lamine Yamal and Germany's Jamal Musiala, and Turkey's Arda Guler.

Nico has been linked with a move away from San Mames, with Barcelona and Arsenal reportedly interested in signing him.

Reacting to the youngster's stellar performance, Super Falcons striker Asisat Oshoala endorsed Nico's potential move to her former club, Barcelona.

In a tweet, the reigning African Women's Player of the Year wrote:

"Nico to Barca ….HERE WE GO !!! #EURO2024."

Nico to Barca ….HERE WE GO !!! #EURO2024

It appears Oshoala is a huge fan of Nico Williams and wants him to join Barcelona despite the club's financial struggles.

Nico Williams, who helped Ernesto Valverde's side win the Copa Del Rey title last season, is reportedly interested in joining Barcelona, partly due to his close bond with the club's 16-year-old wonderkid, Lamine Yamal.
