Overview
- Hull confirmed on February 3 that Williams departed by mutual agreement, making him a free agent.
- After a pre-season trial, he signed a 12-month deal with an option for a second year that will not be used.
- His sole first-team appearance came as a late substitute in a 3-0 defeat to Blackburn Rovers in August.
- He was unable to reach sustained Championship fitness despite Under-21 minutes, and a recent calf issue further hindered progress.
- His exit frees a squad place as Hull brought in reinforcements, including Paddy McNair, Kieran Dowell, Yu Hirakawa, Toby Collyer and Lewis Koumas.
