Williams is expected to earn between seven and eight million euros per season. Currently, the Catalans are working on the financial terms to finalize the deal with Williams' club, Athletic Bilbao.

The left winger has a release clause in his contract, reportedly set at around 60 million euros. Barça does not need to negotiate, but rather ensure they can scrape together the necessary funds without violating LaLiga's Financial Fairplay rules, as they have experienced problems with registering new signings in the past.
