Ipswich Town have today confirmed the signing of defender Brandon Williams on a season-long from Manchester United.

The former Norwich City defender is reunited with Kieran McKenna, after they worked with each other at Old Trafford when the Town boss was a first-team coach for Ole Gunnar Solskjær.

The 22-year-old has made 51 appearances for Manchester United and appeared 29 times for the Tractor Boys’ East Anglian rivals.

Speaking to Town TV, Williams said: “It feels good to be down here and I can’t wait to get started.

“I’m coming here to hopefully get into the team and play a lot of games. There is some very good competition, which is a great challenge, but I’m excited to meet the players and get started.

“I played a lot of games when I broke through at United and have had a couple of tough seasons, too, so it’s good for me to get back out and start playing again.”

Williams becomes Town’s fifth summer signing, after they welcomed George Hirst, Jack Taylor, Omari Hutchinson and Cieran Slicker through the door at Portman Road.
