DENBIGH TOWN FC have confirmed the signing of the brother of a Premier League and Wales star.

Neco Williams, 23, is a household name in the football world by now, having earned 38 caps for Wales and played for the likes of Liverpool, Fulham and current club Nottingham Forest.

Hailing from Cefn Mawr in Wrexham, the right-back was a member of the Wales squad that qualified for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, becoming the first to do so since 1958.

And the footballing gene runs in the family with younger brother Keelan also being a talented player.

The 20-year-old is an ex-Liverpool and Burnley defender and was also previously captain of the Wales youth set-up.
