Athletic Club is reportedly on the verge of a major coup, nearing a deal for former defender Aymeric Laporte. Personal terms are agreed, and negotiations with Al-Nassr are advanced, signaling Athletic's ambitious return.
Star winger Nico Williams has committed his future to Athletic Club, signing a new 10-year deal despite intense summer interest from Barcelona. Manager Ernesto Valverde expresses delight and focuses on the season ahead.
Athletic Club's joy over Nico Williams' new deal is tempered by Yeray Alvarez's provisional suspension due to a banned substance from anti-alopecia medication. This unexpected blow impacts their defensive depth.
