Rangers manager Walter Smith has warned John Fleck and Danny Wilson
they are putting contracts before their careers after the teenagers
rejected new Ibrox deals.
Smith believes the first-team pair have been badly advised by
agents who are set on securing moves to England.
The pair have 18 months left on their contracts but Rangers
wanted to tie them down for longer.
Smith said: "They're putting contracts before their careers.
Both appear to see their future elsewhere.
"There was a time when a youngster's only ambition might have
been to sign for one of the Old Firm.
"Now the young see England's Premier League as the one to
play in.
"They're not handling their own affairs and letting other
people do that for them at a stage when they should still be
gathering experience."
Midfielder Fleck, 18, has made 28 appearances for Rangers
after being hailed as one of the best prospects to emerge at Ibrox
in years.
Wilson, who is also 18, has made eight appearances this
season and has impressed in central defence.
Smith said: "If they weren't getting a chance with the first
team I'd say 'fair enough'.
"But they are getting an opportunity here. It appears it's
not good enough for them."
