Arsenal was rumoured to be interested in signing Williams last summer as they looked to bolster their attacking line-up. However, despite reported interest from numerous clubs following his contribution to Spain's Euro 2024 victory, Williams stayed put at the La Liga club.
Williams' contract with Bilbao is set to run until the summer of 2027, having extended his deal in December 2023. Despite ongoing speculation about a potential move away from the Spanish side, the forward has netted nine goals in 36 appearances this season.
The whispers linking Arsenal with a move for Williams have persisted since last summer, but the forward has now dropped a hint about his future plans. The 22 year old has spoken about his bond with Bilbao, suggesting that any attempt by Arsenal to lure him away from the La Liga club may not be easy.
"This relationship we have at the heart of the club is incredible. Everyone respects everyone else, which is incredible," Williams revealed in a recent interview with France Football, reports Football London.
"This atmosphere, I'll never have it anywhere else. I decided to stay because of that. I took the decision I thought was the right one. I'm happy, and I'm trying to do my best."
