Manchester United youngster James Wilson admits he was only converted to a striker due to a lack of fitness!

Wilson already boasts goals at Premier League level.

But he admitted to manutd.com: "No, I started out as a winger but I think my biggest downfall was probably my fitness. I wasn't really fit enough to be a winger at one point (laughs)! I think there was a point in the Under-15s or Under-16s when I wasn't fit enough to be a winger, so they put me up front for a few games and I scored a few goals, so it has all gone on from there.

"Now, I am probably fit enough to play on the wing, so I have always got that in my locker."
