Jay Williams (born 4 October 2000) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder.

Club career

Williams joined Northampton Town at the age of 13[2] and went onto progress through the youth ranks, before making his first-team debut during their EFL Trophy tie against Wycombe Wanderers, featuring for the entire 90 minutes.[3]

He made his league debut in a 5–0 away win to Macclesfield Town[4] coming off of the bench to replace Sam Foley in the 73rd minute. He went on to play a vital part in the rest of that season racking up 14 appearances in total.

In November 2020, Williams signed for National League North club Kettering Town.[5]

On 7 January 2021, Williams signed for League Two side Harrogate Town.[6]

Following on from his release from Harrogate, he dropped down three divisions to sign for Southern Football League Premier Division Central side AFC Rushden & Diamonds.[7] He made the switch to divisional rivals Banbury United in October 2021 and extended his stay in December when he signed a contract until the end of the season.[7]
