Hartlepool manager Danny Wilson has admitted striker Robert Snodgrass is still a key transfer target.

The 20-year-old is out-of-contract at Scottish Division One side Livingston - who would gain a substantial compensation package should he leave - and is believed to be seeking a move South.

Pools boss Wilson has already sent a number of scouts to watch the Scotland Under-21 international and has indicated he would be interested in signing the youngster.

Wilson told the Hartlepool Mail: "We are looking at lots of players in Scotland and he (Snodgrass) comes into that category, but it all comes down to finance."
