La Liga president Javier Tebas has given a new interview where he\u2019s been asked about Barcelona\u2019s failure to land Nico Williams this summer.<\/p>\n

Tebas has been accused of meddling<\/a> in the transfer – by sharing confidential information<\/a> with Athletic – in a move which led to Williams\u2019 agent asking for a registration guarantee.<\/p>\n

Barcelona refused his request which is believed to be the reason why the deal broke down.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Tebas has had to say about the saga: <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I\u2019ve been able to read is that Nico Williams was asking for a registration guarantee, I don\u2019t know what conditions, but that a football club like Barcelona wasn\u2019t willing to give that guarantee,\u201d he told ESPN.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think Barcelona are in a similar situation to what happened in previous seasons, where they were signing players and waiting until the last minute. That\u2019s something that can make some great players prefer not to take risks and enter an uncertain situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Barcelona have since moving on to other targets, with Marcus Rashford and Luis Diaz<\/a> still believed to be on the club\u2019s agenda.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"La Liga president Javier Tebas has given a new interview where he\u2019s been asked about Barcelona\u2019s failure to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4779,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[422,418,1480,1481,423,5349,4402,424,4685,2848,5346,5351,573,2105,5350,419,403,99,5347,5348,5352],"class_list":["post-4778","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-barca","tag-barcelona","tag-barcelona-la-liga","tag-barcelona-team-news","tag-blaugranes","tag-failed","tag-fc-barcelona-transfer-rumors-news","tag-front-page","tag-gives","tag-his","tag-javier","tag-nico","tag-of","tag-on","tag-pursuit","tag-s","tag-soccer","tag-sports","tag-tebas","tag-verdict","tag-williams"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4778","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4778"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4778\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4779"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4778"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4778"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4778"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
