Harrogate Town announces fourth summer signing

Wednesday, 17 June 2026 10:22

Harrogate Town's new signing, Morgan Williams.

Harrogate Town have welcomed their fourth signing of the Summer as midfielder Morgan Williams arrives from Kings Lynn.

The 21-year-old arrives for an undisclosed fee on the back of an impressive season at The Walks Stadium.

After signing a two-year-contract with the club, Williams said:

“I’m so excited to be here, I just want to get in for pre-season, meet the boys and hopefully have a good season.”

“It was great to hear the Manager’s ambition and trust in me, so I was really eager to get it done.

“There has been a really positive, upbeat feeling about the club and real determination to get back into the EFL, so I can’t wait to be a part of it.”

Williams started his career at AFC Wimbledon, where he had been on the books since age seven and would make his debut in 2003.

A first start soon followed for the midfielder in a Carabao Cup tie against Chelsea, with Williams now closing in on 100 senior appearances at just 21 years of age.

Capped at U19 level for Wales, Williams has also enjoyed loans at Eastbourne, Woking and Dorking during his career up to now.

Assistant Manager Paul Thirlwell said:

“He’s a player we’ve seen plenty of and are really excited to bring in.

“He’s a combative midfield player with good energy, technically good and one we feel will fit into the group well.

“He’s got versatility within the midfield positions as a six or an eight and has played as a ten as well, now he’s ready to progress his career with us.”

Morgan will officially join on 1st July, subject to relevant governing bodies approval.
