Newcastle United could have moved close to the signing of Callum Wilson in the next two days, the Daily Mail suggest.
Newcastle have been tracking the Bournemouth forward for much of the summer so far, and it seems that they are now ready to make their move.
Wilson wants a move to St. James’ Park, with Steve Bruce’s side apparently his top choice to join.
And it seems that the England international could be close to arriving at Newcastle very imminently.
The Mail are expecting movement on the deal in the next 48 hours, which could be exciting for Newcastle fans.
The Magpies lacked a goalscorer over the whole of the last campaign, with their striking options struggling to hit the back of the net.
With Dwight Gayle also out injured, Newcastle’s need to add another forward has only increased over the summer.
And Wilson would surely be an attractive addition to Bruce’s squad.
The £30 million-rated Bournemouth man (Daily Express) possesses pace which will make Newcastle even more of a threat on the counter attack, and he has proven to be a strong scoring threat over a number of seasons at Premier League level now.
