Williams completes Canaries loan move

Norwich City have sealed a season-long loan deal for Manchester United defender Brandon Williams.

The English defender made 14 appearances in all competitions last season for the Red Devils and will now have the chance to gain more first-team experience at Carrow Road.

Williams has made 21 Premier League appearances since his United debut in 2019, scoring one goal, but became United's third choice left-back last season behind Luke Shaw and Alex Telles.

The 20-year-old becomes Norwich boss Daniel Farke's ninth summer signing since the Canaries were promoted back into the Premier League.

Speaking to canaries.co.uk, Williams said: “It feels very different. It’s the first time I’ve ever played for a different club before, but I’m just really excited to get started, meet everybody and get my season going.

“It’s a massive club and I like the way they play. I’ve watched them over the years and seen how they play.

“The club like to play out from the back and play football. That really inspired me to come here, and I think that the head coach can really improve me as a player.

“Everyone has been so welcoming. I’ve really enjoyed my time here already and I can’t wait to meet everybody. I’ve just got a feeling it’ll be a good year.”
