Inaki Williams is Athletic Bilbao's top scorer this season, has scored 11 goals from 30 games in all competitions and is one of the fastest footballers in the world. Williams also has 4 assists to his name and is a modern center forward who can play across the front three. However, he has mostly appeared as the central striker for his club this season and it is from here that Williams has been most effective.

The Spaniard likes to dribble and is extremely effective on the counter. Because of his red hot speed on the ground, Williams has been able to get the better of the opposing defenses on many occasions this season. If the man gets a head start, it is very hard to gain ground on him, such is William's acceleration on the pitch.
The 24-year-old striker has clocked a phenomenal 35.71 kph this season, which shows how devastating he can be for defenders to handle.

Deepungsu Pandit
Deepungsu is a veteran football journalist who has been covering daily transfer roundups and news for over six years at Sportskeeda. He has written over 8500 articles for the website, and has garnered over 19.5Million reads.
Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
