Wilson came through as a youngster at Brighton & Hove Albion but was hampered by injuries during his time with the Seagulls.

A Northern Ireland Under-17 and Under-19 international, he joined Cliftonville in the summer of 2023 before joining Airdrie the following season.

He scored 17 goals in 46 games for the Scottish Championship side in 2024-25.

Wilson is looking forward to playing in Europe with TNS, who became the first Welsh domestic side to play in the group stages of a European competition last season, when they took on the likes of Fiorentina and Panathinaikos in the Conference League.

“It was a big factor in coming here,” Wilson added.

“I wanted to test myself at this level – the Champions League and the Europa Conference League as well.

“It’s a very high level – you only have to look at some of the teams that the club played against last year… unbelievable games. I’d love to be involved in those.”
