Callum Wilson has inked a new deal with Newcastle United that runs until the summer of 2025.
The England striker, whose previous contract would have expired at the end of the current season, joined his side from Bournemouth for about 25 million dollars in September 2020.

Callum has netted 40 goals in 79 Premier League matches for the Magpies, including 18 last campaign, as the team finished 4th and will play in the Champions League.
“I’ve been welcomed ever since I stepped at St James’ Park for the first time,” Wilson shared.
“Now the side’s progressing fantastically and on a journey, so it’s nice to be here and be part of the process.”
The forward has 2 goals since the beginning of the new campaign, but the Magpies were defeated in 3 of their first 4 matches in the Premier League.
“We’re very pleased he inked a new deal because we count on him,” claimed Newcastle manager Eddie Howe, who also managed Callum at Bournemouth.
