Free agent Danny Williams became the latest recruit to join Huddersfield Town for the club’s maiden Premier League campaign on Tuesday.
The United States international played for Reading in last season’s Championship play-off final loss to the Terriers on penalties at Wembley.
His contract with the Royals expired last month and the 28-year-old defensive midfielder has signed a two-year deal with David Wagner’s men.
“As our fans will have seen during the play-off final, Danny brings a lot of quality to any team he plays for,” Wagner told the club’s official website. “His way of playing – his aggressiveness, tenacity and athleticism – fits our ‘Terriers Identity’ perfectly.
“It is not usual that a player of Danny’s ability is available on a free transfer, so there was understandably a lot of interest from clubs.
