About Neco Williams

Neco Shay Williams (born 13 April 2001) is a Welsh professional footballer who plays as a full-back for Premier League club Nottingham Forest and the Wales national team. Williams started out with Cefn United at age six. He joined Liverpool's youth team in 2007. He later made 33 total appearances for their first team. He was loaned out to Fulham in January 2022, before joining Nottingham Forest permanently later that year. Born in Cefn Mawr, Williams represents Wales at senior level. He was a member of the Wales squad that qualified for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, becoming the first to do so since 1958. In the match against Shrewsbury, Williams was also part of a starting line-up that was the youngest in Liverpool's history, with an average age of 19 years and two days. In December, he was included in Liverpool's squad which won the 2019 FIFA Club World Cup, although he was an unused substitute in both of the club's matches in the competition.
