Nico Williams is an increasingly popular name at Chelsea but that’s not a surprise.
As sources close to CaughtOffside have already noted in the past, the Blues have been monitoring the young Athletic Club de Bilbao player for at least a year.
Olise and Williams potential Sterling replacements at Chelsea
Now the Blues are evaluating the current situation regarding an investment for a new winger to strengthen the attack, especially in light of the possible departure of Raheem Sterling, who remains highly appreciated in Saudi Arabia.
It’s important to remember that Williams – whose contract expires in 2027 – is not the only player on the West London club’s list.
Michael Olise to Chelsea?
In addition to the Spaniard – who has a €55m release clause in his Athletic contract – Chelsea are still monitoring Crystal Palace ace, Michael Olise, whose clause with the Selhurst Park outfit is set at around €40m.
To date, however, Chelsea’s priority is still to sign a world-class striker.

Victor Osimhen remains the main target, with the Blues willing to negotiate with Napoli on the payment terms for his €130m release clause.
Benjamin Sesko always represents a possible alternative, but Napoli themselves are very interested in the Slovenian striker, who they see as the perfect replacement for the Nigerian forward in the summer.
