Rhys Williams: Blackpool sign defender on season-long loan from Liverpool

Blackpool have signed defender Rhys Williams on a season-long loan from Premier League side Liverpool.

Prior to that loan spell, Williams made 19 appearances in all competitions for the Reds in 2020-21.

"I think I'm aerially dominant because of my height, and I'm a vocal defender. I like to have the ball at my feet too," he told the club's website.

"I spoke to [boss Michael Appleton] before signing, and he was really complimentary and said only good things about the football club and the journey it's going on.

"I want to be a part of that, and I'm really looking forward to getting started.
