Callum Wilson Facing Season Ending Injury

Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson is reportedly set to miss the remainder of the season due to injury. Wilson, who has scored seven goals in 16 Premier League appearances this season, is facing a spell on the sidelines following surgery on his pectoral tendon. The Daily Mail reports that Wilson could be out of action for between nine to 12 weeks, potentially ending his season prematurely.

The injury occurred during Newcastle’s match against Nottingham Forest, where Wilson had to leave the pitch with his arm in a makeshift sling after tangling with a defender. The setback could also impact Wilson’s chances of representing England at Euro 2024, as manager Gareth Southgate has limited spaces for strikers in his squad.

Despite the injury, Wilson had been linked with a move away from Newcastle in the January transfer window, with clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, and West Ham reportedly interested in signing him before his contract expires in the summer of 2025.
