José Mourinho, on Tuesday, praised Nico Williams, a player for Athletic, the team that Fenerbahçe will face later. In a press conference, the Portuguese coach highlighted his desire to see the young Spanish player at Real Madrid in the future.
"Nico Williams is wonderful. People supported Lamine Yamal more, who is obviously another incredible boy, but I personally prefer Nico", began the Portuguese coach, quoted by MARCA, continuing.
"He's a fantastic player. I can't think of another club that could sign this boy. I hope he ends up wearing white," said Mourinho, referring to Real Madrid.
It is worth noting that Nico Williams, just 22 years old, has two goals and five assists in 20 games for Athletic this season, with a contract valid until 2027 and a release clause worth 58 million euros.
