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.
Plays 45 minutes
Williams crossed once inaccurately during Sunday's 0-0 draw with Elche.
ANALYSIS
Williams entered the match at halftime, but mustered just one cross during his time on the pitch. The attacker hasn't made a start since August after making two substitute appearances since returning from a groin injury earlier in the month.
