KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Danny Wilson to complete Pool move soon?

according to bbc rangers defender danny wilson is near agreeing a move to lfc from rangers. it's being said we want to add british players to our squad, last week it was shelvey and now it looks like the promising rangers defender could be next...



Defender Danny Wilson is expected to agree a move from Rangers to Liverpool in the next seven days.

The 18-year-old has just over a year left on his contract and had turned down the new deal on offer to him.

Liverpool had a previous bid turned down but have returned with an improved offer in the region of £2m plus add-ons that Rangers have deemed acceptable.

The Ibrox club stood to lose the player for around £500,000 in compensation had he not been sold this summer.

Wilson, who made his debut in October, was recently voted PFA Scotland young player of the year, having made over 20 appearances - two in the Champions League - and scored once this season.

Injury ended his campaign prematurely, but he will leave Ibrox with winners' medals from Rangers' Scottish Premier League and Co-operative Insurance Cup triumphs.

Great signing - £2m for young British talent.

At last LFC have realised we once again need to sign up top class young British talent and bring them through.

Its how we did it in the 60's, 70's and 80's!!!

Welcome Danny lad!! What with Stirling and Shelvey, I am excited about what these youngsters can be. Looking forward to seeing who is next...

We obviously have a few quid kicking around somewehere!!???

Yea, if we read the article from our youth coach, he said under rafa new instructions the club must buy english 1st, only if the foreigner is a exceptional talent, then he should come in.

So seems like the ball is in motion with this kid, shelvy, sterling.

I think some foriegn players are counted as homegrown as long as the been in england for a while, so Insua/Lucas/Ngog maybe in that catagory. Not sure tho

you right, i think what he meant was players who are english, have a british blood and feel for liverpool the way a brit would

he seems like a really talented player. young player of the season, and already 2 cl games at the age of 18...

Oh no. Not another ready injured signing.
Can we expect to see him playing within the next 5 years p'raps?

he looked the business this season ...... admittedly hard to tell in the SPL but he does seem a damn good signing

Knowing how things have gone this season we'll probably end up signing Danny Wilson the Swindon manager!

Great signing - get him straight in the 1st team squad with Shelvey next season, both are good enough
