A pacey winger who can play on either flank, Williams started his career in Stockport County's youth system as a 12-year-old.
[4][5] He spent several short spells out on loan, at Grimsby Town in 2004, Leigh RMI in 2005, and Northwich Victoria in 2006,[2][6] and was released by Stockport in March 2006.
[3] After his release from County, Williams signed a permanent deal with Northwich, initially until the end of the 2005–06 season,[7] but in August 2006 he suffered a compound fracture of the right leg[8] which kept him on the sidelines until April 2007.
[9] Williams failed to make an impact on the first team, fell out with the manager, and in January 2008 he was released, moving on to Bradford Park Avenue[10] where he spent the rest of the 2007–08 season before joining Stalybridge Celtic in the summer.
[16] Williams returned to the English non-League by joining Stockport Sports during the 2013–14 season, before moving to Salford City in March 2014.
