The Athletic Bilbao star is trying to reach a higher level and maintain a consistent game. According to Diario Sport, a bold move could be made soon.
The conservative treatments the player has tried have not brought the desired relief, the pain is still ongoing. This could push Williams to undergo surgery, which will keep him out of action for several months.
Atletico's medical team has consulted external experts to determine the ideal solution for the winger. Surgery seems to be the main option at the moment.
As a reminder, Nico has made his career move to Atletico and shares the field with his older brother Inaki. At the beginning of this season, in 8 matches, he scored 1 goal and made 2 assists. In the summer, Williams signed a new contract with the club, which ties him to 2035.
