14 assists this season: Tottenham handed boost in their pursuit of £42.8m-rated star

Tottenham Hotspur continue to be linked with a move for the Athletic Club Bilbao attacker Nico Williams.

The 21-year-old has been outstanding for the Spanish club season and he recently helped them win the Copa Del Rey. He has six goals and 14 assists in all competitions and he could prove to be a quality acquisition for Premier League clubs.

A report from the Telegraph claims that he could be on the move this summer and Tottenham are keeping an eye on his situation. The report further states that the Spanish outfit have already signed a potential replacement for Nico Williams. They have signed Alvaro Djalo from Braga.

The development will come as a major boost for Tottenham who are hoping to secure his signature. The fact that Athletic Club Bilbao have secured a replacement suggests that they are open to a sale.
