Marca linking us to Nico Williams lol we're thinking of activating his release clause. A wild couple of weeks lie ahead.
I would be OK with a right-footed RW, but I don't think players accept that role anymore. Nico is a fine player, but I don't think we need him.
I’m with you. Let’s get Mastanuamo at least who’s a RW. We should have gone for Estevao instead of Endrick.

🚨 BREAKING: Real Madrid are not considering signing Nico Williams. This is my information and I respect that of my colleagues at Marca.— @as_maroto pic.twitter.com/bWdHLT1W43— Madrid Universal (@MadridUniversal) May 20, 2025
I'll clarify: I'm not correcting anyone. I have my information, and others have theirs. Mine is that Real Madrid isn't considering, nor is it going to, sign Nico Williams. And I stand by that. Puntualizo: Yo no corrijo a nadie. Yo tengo mi información y otros tienen la suya. La mía es que el Real Madrid ni se plantea ni va a fichar a Nico Williams. Y me reafirmo.— JOAQUIN MAROTO (@as_maroto) May 20, 2025 🚨.@TalhaAhmad81: "I asked Joan Laporta about the failed deal for Nico Williams to Barcelona. The president told me Nico supports Real Madrid." pic.twitter.com/iVkkvsskLC— Madrid Universal (@MadridUniversal) May 20, 2025 🚨🚨 BREAKING: Real Madrid are seriously considering signing Nico Williams NOW, BEFORE the Club World Cup. Florentino Perez is OBSESSED with the Club World Cup. and the idea of being the first club to ever win it. @marca pic.twitter.com/JyUEuAW6DY— Madrid Zone (@theMadridZone) May 20, 2025
Perhaps the best way forward is to sign Miguel for €8m (and lower wages than Carreras), have him as primary LB for the upcoming season and keep an eye out for the next LB long term signing in 2026 if Miguel isn’t fulfilling his role adequately. I didn’t think Fran looked good enough as a starter for us, but it made sense considering he cost €5m, and Mendy had just had a very solid season. Carreras for €50m is Benfica doing Benfica things.
Read this comment and thought about Bale - Ozil, James - Di Maria and Tcho - Casemiro. If they want to push Rodrygo to PL for 90-100 ME, signing Nico for 58 ME does the job in a market where River Plate wants 45 ME for Franco. Would make 3 Spanish players signed in the summer plus Xabi as coach.
Could be a leak by Nico camp to get Barca interested in him again as well. 🚨 Laporta on Nico Williams to Barça: “We valued Nico as potential signing last summer with Dani Olmo, but right now i think the club is valuing other players”. pic.twitter.com/EBNMbATKDP— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) May 19, 2025 🗣️ Nico Williams: "El jugador con quién más me gustaría jugar es Kylian Mbappé, es un gran jugador, desde que era pequeño me he fijado en él, me gusta fijarme en él para llevarlo al terreno de juego."Guiño al Barcelona 🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/76AWBZ1jRu— REAL MADRID FANS 🤍 (@AdriRM33) May 20, 2025
Roberto Palomar, on @partidazocope "With Nico Williams, you secure a good player and take him away from @FCBarcelona " @realmadrid hasn't ruled out speeding up the Nico Williams deal for the Club World Cup" 🎙️ Roberto Palomar, en @partidazocope 🤔 "Con Nico Williams te aseguras un buen futbolista y se lo quitas al @FCBarcelona"🚨 "El @realmadrid no descarta acelerar lo de Nico Williams para el Mundial de Clubes"📻 #PartidazoCOPE pic.twitter.com/a18WBzMgWQ— El Partidazo de COPE (@partidazocope) May 20, 2025
I feel this Nico rumor is BS, it makes no sense given our current squad unless someone leaves and if this is true its either Vini or Rodrygo
