Harry Wilson says his first year at Fulham – that has seen the Whites clinch an immediate return to the top flight – has been the most enjoyable of his career.
The Welsh winger, who finished second to Serbian striking sensation Aleksandar Mitrovic in the Championship player of the season vote at last night’s EFL awards, confirmed to Goal that he would be joining Fulham permanently in the summer under the terms of his loan move from Liverpool.
“I know now that I will be at a club that I will be at for the next few years after a permanent move. That was what I wanted. I wanted somewhere to settle down off the pitch so I can enjoy it on the pitch.
My first season here has been great, the club has been great with me, I settled in well with my teammates and set me up for a fantastic year. I have managed to get double figures for goals and assists, topping it off tonight by getting into the team of the year.
This year has been my most enjoyable season. I have that stability now and have a great year behind me. I feel like I am not so young anymore. When you are younger, loans are great, they give you experience. My first couple really helped me but you get to a point where you want to settle down.”
The 25 year-old quickly became one of Marco Silva’s automatic selections having learned from his August sending off at Huddersfield. Wilson has scored eleven goals and added eighteen assists in 41 club appearances whilst also helping Wales into a play-off for World Cup qualification.
