      Danny Wilson (Liverpool -> Hearts)
      Apr 03, 2010 03:15:56 am
      Rangers look to hold onto Wilson

      Wilson, 18, was expected to sign a new contract with the Scottish champions this week, but boss Walter Smith revealed on Friday that discussions remain ongoing between his representatives and chief executive Martin Bain.

      The centre-back has a year to run on his current deal after this season and Rangers are keen to secure him on a longer contract.

      Bain told the club's official website: "Danny has been exceptional for us and where I'm at with those negotiations is that we have made him an offer - we've had many discussions - and there is a schedule that sits with his agent at the moment.

      "Two English Premiership clubs approached us in January and since then I have had the odd discussion and we have seen people coming along to watch our players and you can see who they are coming along to watch.

      "I can confirm that Liverpool have expressed an interest but a lot of clubs are keeping abreast of Danny's situation.

      "Danny is a young boy and has done exceptionally well but I'm sure Walter would say he has a lot to learn and I would like to see him commit himself to Rangers and go on to become the Rangers player he can be.

      "Sometimes in life you have to play the long ball and I hope this comes to fruition."

      He went to school with a friend of mine.

      He is pretty good, he got sent off in the recent CIS Insurance Cup final (he was the 2nd red card) but all in all he has done well. He played away at Sevilla im pretty sure and maybe at Unirea in the CL this season. I would say he has a decent future ahead of him from what i've seen and most my Hun mates seem to rate him highly (but they rate Kenny Miller highly as well!) and think he should stay a few more years to get experience.

      If this part is true - "I can confirm that Liverpool have expressed an interest" - it would seem that Rafa doesn't give two fucks that "we have Ayala".

      This young lad is an outstanding young player. He is 18 and has been a stand out in the SPL. I know the standard in Scotland is sh*te but he can only play against the oppo in front of him and he has breezed through it for the most part. For my money from what ive seen he is far better than the young reserve players we have already, this boy has a real chance to have a big future.

      and most my Hun mates seem to rate him highly (but they rate Kenny Miller highly as well!) and think he should stay a few more years to get experience.

      Steady on lad!!!!

      As a regular watcher of the Scottish League I can only confirm that this boy is quality. Yes, he didn't really get to defend against top strikers; and he still has things to learn; but I can see him replacing Carragher in future.

      I also remember him scoring a fantastic header against Hearts last week, 4mins after the game began.

      Thanks for that Alicus, I was trying to forget that game.........although first half the Ramjets defence struggled a bit but it became very comfortable 2nd half.

      He appears to be very assured for one so young. Has played in Champions League and done well. I think he will be an excellent defender and would easily cope with any pressure. I would be happy if this were to occur.

      The lad is an outstanding prospect. Both he and James Mcarthy are 2 of the best young players to come out of scotland in a long long time and we already missed out on the first one. Rangers are in financial meltdown at the moment, worse than us, so a deal is there to be made. And the thought of a tall classy scotsman playing in the heart of our defence again fills me with joy. And i am talking about hansen not gillespie!

      He's a left footer so deputy for Agger or a potential convert to left back perhaps?

      I'd agree
      Rangers are in big financial trouble atm so an offer ~ 3M would get him
      (Sunderland are 2 up against Tottenham btw!!)

      Another youngster we are being linked with.  From BBC sports.

      Wilson has become a regular at the heart of Rangers' defence at 18.

      Liverpool have stepped up their interest in signing Rangers' young defender, Danny Wilson.

      The English Premier League side have followed up their initial enquiry, with the 18-year-old yet to sign the new contract on offer to him at Ibrox.

      Tottenham Hotspur have a long-standing interest in the player, while both Manchester City and Aston Villa are keeping an eye on his situation.

      But Liverpool's interest has been most keenly expressed so far.

      And, with just over a year left on Wilson's contract, Rangers may soon have a big decision to make.

      It would take somewhere in the region of £3m plus add-ons linked to future appearances or transfers to prise the player away this summer.

      However, if he stays until the end of his contract, Rangers could expect to get only about £500,000 in compensation.

      Rangers remain hopeful, though, that Wilson will sign the contract they have offered.

      The day after the defender scored his first goal for Rangers, in a 4-1 win over Hearts on 27 March, manager Walter Smith said he expected Wilson to follow the example of fellow teenager John Fleck by signing a contract extension in the following days.

      However, that did not come to fruition and chief executive Martin Bain last week admitted that the two sides had yet to reach agreement and that Liverpool had made an enquiry.

      Wilson has become a first-team regular at Ibrox this season and has made 24 appearances for the Scottish Premier League leaders.

      Who is your mates cos i went to school with the lad also. St Margarets Academy in Livingston. He is a quality player and will serve Scotland well in the future. Id pay the fee and loan him back to Rangers or a championship team.

      3 million though? It seems a bit high. 1.5 million would be a better deal imo.
