He has a good pace, smooth dribbling skills, and clinical finishing abilities.

They surely need more firepower in their attacking front. The concerned name can be an upgrade for the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/2025\/01\/leandro-trossard-to-start-4-3-3-arsenal-predicted-lineup-against-brighton-and-hove-albion\/\">Leandro Trossard<\/a> and Gabriel Martinelli.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">While Williams might prefer joining Barcelona next summer, it remains to be seen if the Spanish outfit are willing to buy him considering the great forms of <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/tag\/raphinha\/\">Raphinha<\/a> and Lamine Yamal. If not, the Gunners can provide him with a solid position in an exciting sporting project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The 22-year-old will surely not come in for a cheap rate as he is rated highly.
