Liverpool defender Danny Wilson has admitted that he found it difficult to resist the chance to move to England's most successful club.
The 18-year-old centre-back successfully completed a medical at the Melwood this afternoon after a deal worth up to £5million was struck between the Reds and Glasgow Rangers yesterday.
Wilson, who was named both SFA and Football Writers' Young Player of the Year last season, becomes the club's fourth summer signing, joining Jonjo Shelvey, Milan Jovanovic and Joe Cole, and is determined to prove his worth at Anfield
He said: "It's a great feeling to sign for Liverpool. Wherever you go everyone knows Liverpool FC and I am just very happy to be here.
"This is a massive challenge for me. This is one of the best leagues in the world and I will be playing for one of the biggest teams in the world.
"Coming here from Scotland, people may say I might not be ready for this, but that is a challenge I want to put on myself and that's the reason I came here.
"Everyone knows about the history of this football club with 18 league titles.
"It wasn't a difficult decision to come here as Liverpool are not a team who come in for you every day, so I can't wait to get started.
"There were other clubs interested in me who are in the Champions League, but once Liverpool came in for me there was only one team I wanted to go to."
Livingston-born Wilson leaves Ibrox after lifting the Scottish League Cup, the Scottish Cup and the SPL title during a three-year stay.
