Nico Williams announced a 10-year contract extension with Biba. According to the Spanish media Daily Sports, Nico's social media fans decreased by nearly 500,000 in the following week or so.
Athletic Bilbao held a ceremony on Tuesday local time to announce the renewal of his contract with Nico Williams until 2035. Nico has rejected Barcelona for two consecutive summers, and this year it is even more subtle. On June 13, the player himself took the initiative to express his hope to join through his agent. Before that, the Barcelona management did not put Nico in the signing plan this summer.
Since the news of the above meeting was exposed, Nico Williams' popularity on social media has begun to soar. Barcelona's international influence has given players a much higher media exposure than other teams. Before announcing the renewal of Bilbao, Nico's fans had exceeded 6.4 million.
On July 4, on the day Nico Williams announced his contract renewal with Athletic Bilbao, his number of fans plummeted by more than 200,000 in a single day. Since then, Nico's number of fans has continued to decline and has now fallen to the 6 million mark. In just over a week, Nico lost nearly 500,000 fans. According to the data chart released by the reporter, Nico's fan count clearly shows this trend.
Just before the Eve of the German European Cup a year ago, Nico had less than 1 million followers on Instagram. As one of the core members of the European Cup champion Spain, Nico's social media influence has exploded after the European Cup, with fans soaring to 4.5 million. Of course, Barcelona's intention to sign Nico at that time also helped boost popularity.
After renewing the contract, Nico clearly expressed his joy for staying at home: "I want to continue writing the legend in Saint-Mames with the fans and family. Ambitious honors such as the Champions League are calling, what better than realizing your dreams in a club in life? Besides, my brother is with him, he will always be a role model for everyone, especially for me."
