Ethan Williams joins Cheltenham Town on loan

The young Manchester United forward scored the winning goal for our Under-18s in last May’s national league final at Stamford Bridge, having played a key role in the group’s unprecedented trio of trophies.

Williams signed a professional contract at United in July 2024 and has since built on last season’s 26 goal contributions (17 goals, nine assists) across the Professional Development Phase (U17-U21).

After playing in the first-team's pre-season fixture against Rosenborg in Norway, Ethan netted three times in our UEFA Youth League campaign, which ended in December with a narrow aggregate defeat to AZ Alkmaar.

His continued development has earned him a first temporary move, to the Robins, where he’ll aim to gain as much senior experience as possible.
