Liverpool FC defender Danny Wilson would consider a loan to boost international career

DANNY WILSON admits he may be forced to consider a loan move away from Liverpool this season in a bid to boost his international career – if he receives any offers.

The 19-year-old made just eight appearances last term following his switch to Anfield from Rangers a year ago.

The young defender partnered Gary Caldwell in Scotland’s 2-1 win over Denmark last night but knows he will need more game time at club level if he hopes to retain a place in manager Craig Levein’s plans.

Asked if a loan move could be an option, Wilson said: “It’s been mentioned but there have been no offers yet so it’s difficult to try to decide what’s going to happen.

“If there are no offers, you can’t really do much about it so I’m just working hard and trying to keep a part of things. But we’ve got a lot of players now at Liverpool and it’s going to be difficult.

“There are five centre-backs there and we are all of good quality so the manager has a difficult decision and whatever his decision is, I’ll respect that.

“I didn’t play enough last season and I wouldn’t really like to repeat that next season. I can only do what I’m doing.

“If it’s enough, it’s enough. If it’s not, I’ll just need to work that bit harder.”

Wilson was linked with a return to Rangers on loan earlier this summer and says he would not rule out another spell at Ibrox if he received the call from Ally McCoist. He said: “I don’t see why not, if the option was there.”
