Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal fans all call for the same signing following Spain vs France clash

After Spain’s thrilling win over France in the Nations League semi-finals, fans of Liverpool, Manchester United, and Arsenal have made it clear who they want their clubs to sign: Nico Williams.

Spain took control early in the match, with Williams opening the scoring and Mikel Merino adding a second goal just minutes later. In the second half, Spain extended their lead with goals from Lamine Yamal and Pedri. Kylian Mbappe managed to pull one back for France from the penalty spot, but Yamal quickly responded with another goal. Rayan Cherki scored a brilliant left-footed strike to make it 5-2, followed by a Dani Vivian own goal and a late header from Randal Kolo Muani, bringing the final score to 5-4.

Spain now advances to the final against Portugal on June 8, while France will compete for third place against Germany earlier that day.

Although the game featured stars like Mbappe, Yamal, and Pedri, it was Nico Williams who grabbed the attention of Premier League fans. His pace, skill, and direct style left a strong impression—and many now want to see him in England.

Supporters expressed their excitement on social media.

One Manchester United fan pleaded: “Please sign Nico Williams.”

A Liverpool fan wrote: “Nico always stands out when I watch him. But if the reports about his wages are true, he’d be a very expensive signing. I’d love us to get him, though.”

Another said: “No one can convince me Nico Williams isn’t perfect for Arsenal. I’m not even looking at his stats—it’s just obvious.”

One supporter added: “Wish United could land someone like Nico Williams. He’s so dangerous in front of goal.”

And another chimed in: “If Liverpool signed Nico for the left wing, I’d be fine with Diaz leaving. He’s the one I want.”

However, a move may not happen anytime soon. According to journalist Ben Jacobs, Williams has started contract renewal talks with Athletic Bilbao. Negotiations reportedly include a salary of up to €10 million and a potential increase to his €58 million release clause. While clubs like Arsenal and Chelsea are monitoring the situation, the total cost—factoring in wages and agent fees—could be a dealbreaker.

Athletic are hoping to secure a new deal before formal offers are made.
