Wilson’s looking for loan move

-

JAMES Wilson is considerin­g a loan move away from United in January.

The 21-year-old has been impressive for Ricky Sbragia’s Under-23s this season after recovering from injury.

Despite interest from other clubs in the summer, the decision was made by United to keep the forward.

It has been a long road back after he sustained a knee ligament injury while on loan at Derby County which kept him sidelined for almost a year.

But he is at full fitness again and hasn’t ruled out another loan move in January. He said: “I don’t see why not. Obviously, the summer transfer window has gone and there was a lot of interest. But the staff all came to an agreement that I would stay until January to build on what I’ve already worked for.

“It’s certainly a possibilit­y. We’ll have to have a few conversati­ons with the manager and certain people around here. I’m not ruling it out, but we’ll come to an agreement over what needs to be done.”

After such a long time on the sidelines Wilson feels he has coped with his situation.

He added: “The recovery is a process and I think I’ve dealt with it quite well mentally.

“If you’re not training for 90 minutes, which you can’t always do, I think it’s really hard to get that unique fitness you need for a full game. It’s just a matter of keeping playing games and staying as fit as I can.”
