The 22-year-old has joined the Fir Park side from Burton Albion for an undisclosed fee, penning a two-year deal with the club holding the option of a further year.
The former Chelsea and Derby youth player is eligible for Motherwell's Conference League second-round qualifier against Faroese outfit HB.
"A humble young man, Dylan has been in first-team environments since he broke into the Derby County team at a young age," said Johansson.
"He is an incredibly mature man, and we've had some excellent discussions about what we want Dylan to do in our system.
"He is an attack-minded and exciting defender, but most importantly, he works incredibly hard for his team-mates."
Williams, who played 31 times for League One Burton last season, added: "I've spoken to a number of people about Motherwell. Everyone has had positive things to say about the club.
"The initial discussions with the manager were encouraging, and he's been so clear on what he wants me to do. Key messaging and a clear desire to bring me to the club meant it was an easy decision to come here."
