West Ham United Launch Shock Bid for Goal-Scoring Phenom with astonishing Premier League Record

TBR Football can exclusively reveal that Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson is considering his options ahead of a potential exit in the summer.

Callum Wilson has missed much of the ongoing season with back and hamstring injuries, starting just one game in all competitions this campaign.

But even during the 2023/2024 season, Wilson suffered a similar fate with injuries, starting a mere 12 games in total.

With Alexander Isak having a world-class season in any case, it is a nigh-on impossible task for the England international to reclaim his place in the Magpies’ starting XI on a consistent basis.

As a result, the former AFC Bournemouth goalscorer has no choice but to seriously assess his future.

West Ham considering making move for Callum Wilson

Sources have now told Graeme BaileyTBR Football’s chief correspondent that Newcastle are open to letting Wilson leave on a free transfer at the end of the season.

However, Eddie Howe’s side could yet exercise the one-year option in the 32-year-old’s contract.

But TBR Football understands that Wilson does not expect to be a Newcastle player by the end of the current campaign and his sights are set on staying in the Premier League.

West Ham United and his former club Bournemouth have previously shown interest in signing him and they could do so once again by assessing his future under Eddie Howe.

Leeds United are also interested in signing Wilson.

In the event that Wilson is intrigued by a move to Elland Road, he will have to accept the inevitably of a significant wage drop after being one of Newcastle’s highest-earners.

Coventry City boss Frank Lampard personally wishes to sign the Englishman as well — who has plenty of suitors ready to prise him away from St. James’ Park.

The 10 Premier League superstars Wilson has more goals than

While Wilson’s fitness and form can perhaps be doubted, his pedigree as a Premier League player cannot.

The veteran has scored 88 league goals in 225 appearances for Bournemouth and Newcastle.

The aforementioned figure is higher than big names such as Marcus Rashford (87), Dennis Bergkamp (87), Eden Hazard (85), Fernando Torres (85), Carlos Tevez (84), Roberto Firmino (82), Erling Haaland (82), Riyad Mahrez (82), Daniel Sturridge (76) and Eric Cantona (70).
