Nico Williams follows in brother Inaki footsteps after scoring for Athletic Bilbao at Elche

Published on: 14 September 2022

Nico Williams scored his first league goal of the season for Athletic Bilbao against Elche- the same venue his brother got off the mark in the Spanish La Liga. 

The 20-year-old was on target at the Martínez Valero as Athletic dispatched Elche 4-1 at the weekend.

The youngest of the Williams has been in scintillating form for the Rojiblancos since the start of the season.

He continues to gain inches in the Spanish media for his improved performances for the side.

The Spanish-born Ghanaian scored a stunning goal to help Bilbao return to winning ways and climb to fourth place in La Liga.

The 20-year-old started and was substituted in the 64th minute. His goal capped off an excellent performance by the youngster.

Nico has two goal contributions in five league games, scoring one and assisting one.

Inaki Williams, his senior brother, was also in action, continuing his incredible run in La Liga. The Ghana forward has now made a record-extending 237 consecutive appearances in the league.

Nico, unlike Inaki, has stated that he is not yet ready to decide whether to play for Spain or Ghana.

He wants more time to decide on his international future, which is likely to be Ghana.
