"I'm sure with the maturity and ability they have shown over the last year, they will have a huge part to play if they remain at the club." Forsyth has played five times for the first team this season but is regarded as a talented prospect, while One has shown he can handle himself in the professional ranks with 25 appearances under his belt for the first team and two goals in his maiden season. Rankin added: "Interest in these players is always going to happen. When we give 16-year-old kids opportunities to go and play in the first team, straight away that flags up on databases of Premiership clubs, foreign clubs and they will come and watch. "We give young players a chance. I think seven youngsters made their debuts for us this season. Gabe Forsyth (Image: Hamilton Academical FC) "We are aware scouts from various clubs have come to watch our players and that is always going to happen when you have talented boys at 16-years-old. "In Ryan's case, he has played over 25 games and Gabe has started games for us and played in the Championship. "They are good, young, promising players so I'm not surprised they have been linked with clubs.

"In previous years, you maybe had youngsters playing 100 games and then you would sell them. "These days, with the resources that Premiership teams have, these guys get a couple of games sometimes before clubs are trying to take them away. "We need to be ready for that, but they are really good, exciting youngsters. "Both of them are under contract so until anything comes in or anything is agreed, they will remain our players."
