William King
William King, better known as Billy King, attacks space from the left wing, weaving runs beyond the line and threatening the back post. William King broke through at Hearts, won the Scottish Championship in 2015, and later had a loan spell with Rangers that aided their promotion. He thrives breaking lines high up. He moved to Dundee United (2017–2019), scoring 8 goals in a single season and establishing a consistent attacking presence. A 2020–2022 stint with St Patrick's Athletic in Ireland earned him Player of the Month honors. In 2025 he returned to Edinburgh with Bonnyrigg Rose in the Lowland League, adding experience to the frontline and earning Scotland U21 caps (8) with 1 goal. Billy King links play with one-touch layoffs and presses high to force turnovers from the front. On the pitch he finishes moves and gets shots off quickly.
