It was €40m, split into two payments, plus former Athletic centre back Iñigo Martínez , 33.
Now Barcelona are preparing a new bid. They are ready to pay €55m plus €10m in bonuses. This time too, Martínez will be included in the bid.
Barcelona still want the payment split. They want to pay €30m immediately and the other €25m at a later stage.
Williams' buyout clause has been rumored to be €58m. However, Barcelona want to avoid activating it. By splitting the payment, it will be easier to register him in terms of Financial Fair Play.
