Callum Wilson's contract with Newcastle is due to expire at the end of June. Initially, it appeared that he might depart the club, as there had been no significant discussions regarding a contract extension. Nonetheless, footboom reported that negotiations have commenced between Wilson and Newcastle to consider the possibility of prolonging his tenure. Wilson is regarded as a club icon, having joined in 2020 and playing a key role in the team's recent achievements, including securing a fifth-place finish and qualifying for the Champions League. Despite facing a challenging season due to injuries, the renewal discussions are in their early stages, and it is crucial to reach an agreement promptly.

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe suggested the possibility of Callum Wilson staying at the club beyond his current contract duration. Howe expressed admiration for Wilson's outstanding qualities and indicated that there is a scenario in which Wilson could continue at the club. Wilson, who is 32 years old, has not been utilized as frequently lately but is regarded as a valuable squad player, especially as a backup to Alexander Isak. Financial Fair Play considerations might also impact Newcastle's decision to keep Wilson instead of spending money to find a replacement.
