Carragher mentioned that Williams scored the first goal against England in the Euro final and has impressed many people with his skills. He acknowledges that Williams has renewed his contract for 10 years and is unlikely to join Liverpool, but he would like to see the player in a Liverpool shirt. Williams has come through the youth ranks at Bilbao, where his older brother Inaki is also a player, and made his debut for the club at 18 years old.
Williams is considered one of the top wingers in the world, but his loyalty to Athletic Club is strong, and the high price tag and Liverpool's significant summer spending make a deal for him unlikely.
