A product of the Huddersfield Town Academy, he was loaned out to Bury in August 2017, just 2 days after making his debut in the League Cup against Rotherham United.

Career

Brought up in Huddersfield, Williams joined Huddersfield Town aged 9, and gradually went up the ranks, including winning two England under-18 caps.

He made his competitive first team debut for the Terriers in their EFL Cup second round match against Rotherham United at the John Smith's Stadium on 23 August 2017.

After head coach David Wagner said he expected Williams to go out on loan to gain experience, he joined EFL League One side Bury on loan for the rest of the season on 25 August 2017. He made his debut for the Shakers the following day in their 0–0 draw against Rochdale.

On 8 August 2018, Williams joined League One club Barnsley for an undisclosed fee, signing a four-year deal. [2] He scored his first goal for Barnsley, and his first career goal, in an EFL Trophy tie against Manchester City Under-23s on 4 December 2018. [3]

On 17 May 2024, the club announced he would be released in the summer when his contract expired. [4]
