Callum Wilson

Callum Wilson, at 33, remains a spirited presence in Newcastle United's attack, embodying a classic centre forward's role with a few modern twists. His playing style is heavily defined by his knack for being in the right place at the right time, although his goal threat isn't as sharp as it once was, suggesting a slight dip as age takes its toll. A seasoned campaigner, Wilson still manages to create opportunities for his teammates, showcasing a reliable eye for chance creation that hints at his experience and intelligent movement off the ball. However, his ball retention and progressive play could use a touch more refinement, often leaving him reliant on others to carry the ball forward. Despite these areas for improvement, Wilson’s tenacity and positional awareness mean he remains a valuable asset in the Magpies' setup, offering a wealth of experience and a solid, if unspectacular, contribution to their attacking depth.
