The left-back has appeared 51 times for the Red Devils since his debut in 2019.
Williams, who made five appearances for United across pre-season this summer, spent the 2021/22 season on loan with Ipswich’s rivals Norwich City.
The youngster played for United’s Under-21s during the majority of the 2022/23 campaign and captained the side on many occasions in Premier League 2.
Williams has revealed he is looking forward to linking up with his former U18 coach McKenna in the Championship.
He told the United website: “Kieran was my youth team coach at United and, from there, we have had a great relationship.
“He has always had the standards of a coach at the top level and has had a big influence on me.
“He has always kept in touch with me to make sure I’m OK and I trust everything he says because he is great to learn off.
“I’m excited to work with him again.”
Williams coudl be set for a fiery debut, with Ipswish facing United’s bitter rivals Leeds at home on Saturday.

McKenna managed the Red Devil’s youth team from 2016-2018.
He then went on to become assistant boss for the Premier League giant’s senior side from 2018-2021.
The ex-Totthenham U18 manager has since smashed it with the Suffolk side leading the team to automatic promotion from League One last season.
Ipswich Town have had a remarkable start to the season this time round in the Championship.
