West Ham agree deal for ex-Newcastle striker Wilson

Callum Wilson has signed a 12-month contract with West Ham after playing for Newcastle and Bournemouth.

After being released by Newcastle at the end of last season, Wilson was in talks with the Hammers about signing him as a free agent, according to BBC Sport on July 24.

And ahead of the 2025-26 season, Wilson has already signed a deal with Graham Potter’s side.

Wilson, who made 49 goals in 130 games for the Magpies before agreeing to a new deal, won nine England caps between 2018 and 2023.

Due to chest, hamstring, and back injuries, the 33-year-old was only allowed to make 18 Premier League appearances between 2024 and 2025, two as a starter, and 20 during the previous campaign.

He also had options in Major League Soccer and attracted interest from other Premier League clubs.
