Liverpool fans on Twitter are delighted that Derby County’s Harry Wilson has been nominated for the Young Player of the Year award in the Championship.

The EFL confirmed on their official Twitter account on Tuesday that Wilson has been shortlisted for the award alongside Luton’s James Justin and Norwich City defender Max Aarons.

Wilson, who is on loan at Pride Park from Anfield this season, has been working under Frank Lampard and is hoping to help them earn promotion to the Premier League.

One Reds supporter pointed out that Wilson is getting his ‘deserved recognition’, while others described his form during this campaign as ‘outstanding’.

Another Liverpool fan claimed that the versatile attacker needs to be considered by his parent club next term. If he does then he will have to prove his worth alongside a whole host of attacking talent.

Here is a selection of Liverpool fans reacting to Wilson’s nomination:
