The Athletic Bilbao starlet has been turning heads with his electric pace, both on and off the ball. His versatility across the front line and tireless work ethic make him a perfect fit for Jürgen Klopp’s successor, Arne Slot’s, high-pressing style.

Williams’ impressive performances for Bilbao and Spain at Euro 2024 have seen his stock soar.

His ability to beаt defenders with his speed and skill is a nightmare for opposing teams, while his willingness to track back and contribute defensively would be a welcome addition to the Liverpool squad.

Manager Arne Slot is reportedly keen to add Williams to the exciting puzzle he’s building at Anfield. The young winger would provide much-needed competition for places on the flanks, while also offering tactical flexibility for the Reds.

Whether Liverpool can convince Williams to swap La Liga for the Premier League remаins to be seen. With Barcelona also circling, it could be a transfer saga this summer. One thing’s for sure, if the Reds manage to land Williams, they’ll be getting a player with the potential to light up the Premier League for years to come.
