The Wales international's move to Buckinghamshire is on an emergency basis as league rules stipulate a deal until the end of the season wasn't possible due to his standard loan with Forest earlier in the season. Ninety-three days was the longest stay MK Dons boss Karl Robinson could broker for the midfielder.

"I'm delighted to be here," Williams told the club website. "It's a new chapter in my life and I'm really excited to come here and play football.

"The way the team plays really excites me. I'm a player who likes to get on the ball, play football and enjoy myself so that's one of the main reasons why I'm here."

Whether Williams can make his Dons debut at Bolton Wanderers on Saturday is subject to league clearance.
