Reports have claimed that Chelsea have firmly added another player to their radar ahead of the summer transfer window.
A number of sources have claimed that the club are considering making a move for Atletico Bilbao winger Nico Williams, with them stating that he has a release clause of £43m.
It was claimed that they nearly signed the 21-year-old earlier this season instead of Cole Palmer, however will be thankful that they still made a move for the former Manchester City man off the back of his stellar campaign so far.
Williams would be coming in to a pretty congested winger role, where the likes of Mykhailo Mudryk and Raheem Sterling are currently operating.
The latter however has been linked with a move away from the club at the end of the season, with Saudi Arabia reportedly weighing up making a big move.
The Spain international has already made an impact for his national side, with him playing a big part in them reaching the Nations League final four.
He impressed many on what was his second appearance for his country, and Rodri came out after the game and shared just how impressed he had been with him, and how he turned the game on its head.

He said to Marca: “Nico was the difference. He changed the rhythm of the match with his stride and the energy he has. He provided a great assist and Álvaro was there.”
It has been claimed that a striker is still firmly top of their list when it comes to potential signings.
However, they should absolutely look to bring in Williams ahead of their rivals, who has shown an ability to feature on both wings.
Given the fact he has more assists than Palmer this season, he certainly has the creative touch that could provide a serious striker.
