Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Williams.
Judged on this season alone, Williams graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 51st of 66 of the 66 central midfielders in the League One, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 2.509 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 13 → 10). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 42, top 29% of the 66 central midfielders in the League One. At 22 Williams is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 8.9 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Burton Albion finished 17th of 24 · a lower-table side
2.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 33.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 42, Williams carries the 19th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League One (top 29%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Burton Albion finished 17th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
