Defender Danny Wilson has signed a three-year deal with Liverpool after passing his medical, the club have confirmed.

Wilson, 18, signed from Rangers for a fee that could eventually reach £5 million after breaking into the Gers' first-team in 2009-10.

"It's a great feeling to sign for Liverpool,'' he told LFC TV. ''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."
