MK Dons have signed Crystal Palace midfielder Jonny Williams on a 93-day emergency loan.

Welsh international Williams has been on loan at Nottingham Forest this season, and has also played for Ipswich Town.

“Jonny is someone who I’ve always liked from a young age. He really suits our style – he’s a very offensive player and can play in a variety of positions.

He’s also got an unpredictability about him and a low centre of gravity which gives him that ability to drive past people. He had a massive impact on helping Palace get promoted from this division – I’m really excited about what he can bring.

We'd have loved to have done this deal until the end of the season but as he's played for Crystal Palace and already been out on a standard loan this season, a 93-day loan is the longest we can acquire his services for."

– Karl Robinson, MK Dons Manager

In other transfer news, Luton Town defender Luke Wilkinson has joined Stevenage on a permanent deal while Alan Sheehan has joined the Hatters on loan until the end of the season.

Southend United have signed Southampton's Sam McQueen and Arsenal youngster Glen Kamara on loan deals until May.
