Neco Williams
24-Year-Old
Nottingham Forest
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Williams became a regular during the 2024/25 season, netting a full-time spot instead of a rotational role like the previous two seasons. He surpassed 2,000 league minutes for the first time, earning close to 2,600 minutes. Defensively, he notched 31 interceptions, 90 tackles and 120 clearances, an impressive line for a full-back. He also netted a goal and three assists. Given that he unleashed 37 shots, there's a chance for more offensive production if a bit luckier. Williams found himself a vital piece in the XI last season and if he can stay healthy, 3,000 minutes are on the table for him.
Retains starting role
Williams has started in all three games to start the season at left-back.
ANALYSIS
Williams has retained his starting role at left-back moving into the 2025/26 season, having yet to miss a start in three matches. He has been solid on both sides of the ball thus far, recording two chances created and 15 crosses in the attack to go along with one clearance, four interceptions and eight tackles in the defense. He should maintain this role moving forward, a decent two-way player who could find more success under new manager Ange Postecoglou.
