JORDAN WILLIAMS
Signed by the Reds in the summer of 2018, Jordan Williams was a product of the youth system at Huddersfield Town and following a successful spell with Bury on loan in the 2017/18 campaign, the defender was snapped up by Barnsley on a four-year deal.
The energetic full back grabbed his first Reds goal against Man City's U21 side in the 2018/19 Checkatrade Trophy campaign.
Forced his way into the first team on a regular basis as the Reds were promoted to the Championship in May of 2019 and won the battle for the right-back spot once back in the second tier, playing regularly under Gerhard Struber as the year came to a close.
Moved into numerous positions in defence, Williams' consistent performances continued as the Reds retained their second tier status.
After starring at the beginning of the 2020/21 campaign, Jordan was struck down by injury and had to be patient upon his return in the new year. But whenever called upon, he impressed, particularly so in the play-off semi-final at Swansea City.
Now one of the Reds' most experienced players, Jordan was once again in decent form before yet another injury curtailed his 2021/22 season, having to watch on as Barnsley dropped into the third tier.
