In his first interview, Williams told Shrewsbury Town's official website : ''All my time has been spent at United so far, I’ve gone through the academies growing up but it’s been a time for me to get out and make a professional career for myself.

''I’ve had some good away times with England as well, I’ve been to the World Cup at U17s, qualified for the Euro’s for the U19s, so that’s been great for my development as a player.''

The pacy defender has played for England at U16, U17, U18 and U19 level.
