Career

Early career

Wilson began his career with Sunderland in 2006 earning a professional contract in 2010 and played a match with Harrogate Town.[3] He went out on loan to Gateshead and Chesterfield failing to make an appearance for either and was released by Sunderland in the summer of 2013.[4][5] After leaving Sunderland Wilson joined Cambridge United on a non-contract basis on 9 August 2013.[6] He joined Accrington Stanley on 27 August 2013 and made his professional debut on 3 September 2013 in a 1–0 defeat against Crewe Alexandra in the Football League Trophy.[7][8] He left Stanley after a single Football League Trophy appearance, in November 2013 after his contract was cancelled by mutual consent.[9]

Cardiff City

He joined Cardiff City in the same month. On 7 July 2014, Wilson played 10 minutes as a midfielder, against Carmarthen Town in a friendly. Wilson has featured on the bench several times during the 2014–2015 season as well as making a number of under 21 appearances. The following season, Wilson signed a new contract keeping him in South Wales until 2017.[10] He made his Cardiff debut against AFC Wimbledon on 11 August 2015 in the League Cup.[11]

Two months later, Wilson joined AFC Wimbledon on an emergency one-month loan deal that was extended. Wilson was signed as a short-term replacement for the injured James Shea. He made his Wimbledon debut on the same day he was signed in a 3–4 League Two away win against Accrington Stanley.[12][13] After conceding a goal from a free-kick taken by Jerome Okimo from inside his own half during a 2–1 defeat to Stevenage,[14] Wilson became embroiled in a row with Wimbledon supporters after he received criticism of his performance on social media website Twitter. Wilson responded to the messages by posting you're still paying to watch me every week and helping towards my wage, I'm laughing and you're losing out.[15][16] His loan spell was cut short ahead of schedule two days later on 14 December 2015.[17]
