The real reason for Rory Wilson's Aston Villa standoff and how much Rangers could lose out on if he doesn't sign

dailyrecord.co.uk

Rory Wilson’s contract stand-off is down to a lack of a pathway to the Aston Villa first-team rather than money. The Scotland under-21 international has been offered a number of five year contract extensions from the English Premier League outfit but has failed to agree an extension.

The highly-rated 18-year-old’s contract at Villa Park is up in the summer and he could leave for another top club outside of England for just €270,000 in training compensation.

Wilson, who scored 46 goals in 52 games for club and country last season, could sign a pre-contract from January 1st and a number of top European clubs are already watching his situation closely.

The main issue for Wilson is the lack of a route into the Aston Villa first-team squad. He is set to turn 19 in January and knows he is getting to an age where he has should be pushing for more top level exposure.

John McGinn said there is no limit to Aston Villa's ambition in the Champions League after beating Bologna 2-0 to go top of the table in a dream return to the competition. Villa last played in the top tier of European football back in 1983 but Unai Emery's transformation of a sleeping giant knows no bounds as they became the only side to register three wins from three Champions League games so far. McGinn's free-kick flew beyond everyone into the far corner to open the scoring in the second half before Jhon Duran kept up his prolific strike rate on a rare start for the Colombian.
