Noa Williams (born 27 November 2001) is a Swedish footballer who plays as a winger for Sarpsborg 08.

Career

[edit]

He started his career in Hammarby IF, last playing for them in the P19 Allsvenskan in the summer of 2019. He was capped three times for Sweden U16 in 2017.[2][3]

Not getting a contract with Hammarby's senior team, he moved north to start his senior career in IK Brage in 2020.[4][5] He scored his first goal in July[6] and became known as a creative player.[7] Here he was discovered by a scout from Fredrikstad FK and moved to the Norwegian second-tier club in late July 2021.[8][9]

In the summer of 2023, Williams was loaned out to stragglers Skeid. Despite Williams having "excelled at times", he would have to take a detour to develop better, in light of "the way the season has progressed".[10] Skeid were soon relegated, but Williams was noted for a nutmeg and assist against Sandnes Ulf.[11] After Fredrikstad's manager decided that Williams did not fit into his desired playing style, the "popular" player was sold to Kongsvinger IL ahead of the 2024 season.[12]

In the summer of 2025, Williams was the subject of transfer speculation. Amid interest from Norwegian clubs, media reported that Kongsvinger rejected a bid from BK Häcken worth 10 million kr (9.4 million kr).[13][14] His contract lasting until the end of 2027, it looked probable that he might move in the winter of 2026. In November, a bid from Malmö FF was reportedly rejected.[15][16]

However on 6 February 2026, Williams joined Eliteserien side Sarpsborg on a four-year contract.[17]

Personal life

[edit]

He is a son of a Korean adoptee to Sweden and a Welsh father.[18]

In Kongsvinger, he lived together with Tilde Modin Cato.[19]

In 2022, Williams was mugged at knifepoint in downtown Fredrikstad.[20]
