James Wilson, a Scottish prodigy born on the 6th of March 2007, is a football forward playing mainly as a striker for Heart of Midlothian Football Club. Standing at 5ft 6in (1.7m) and weighing 11st (70kg), Wilson dons the number 21 jersey for Hearts.
Affectionately known by fans and teammates alike for his on-pitch presence and goal-scoring ability, Wilson's current market value sits roughly around £179k, as per the valuation provided by Transfermarkt. His contract with Hearts is nearing its end, with an expiration date set for the 31st of May 2025, leaving him only 7 months leeway as of today.
Breaking into the Hearts first team in the 2023 - 2024 season, young Wilson made a modest two appearances. His impact, however, has grown significantly in the current 2024 - 2025 season as he has already made three appearances and netted two goals for the team.
To add to his early career achievements, Wilson has had the taste of Scottish Cup football during the 2023 - 2024 season and Europa League qualifiers in the 2024 - 2025 season, with a single appearance as a substitute in each competition. Given his early success and promise, his stock within the landscape of Scottish football is on an undeniable upward trajectory.
