AC Milan pushing to sign Newcastle United star Callum Wilson
AC Milan have set their sights on securing the services of Premier League center forward Callum Wilson.
Wilson, who boasts an impressive record, has accumulated 102 appearances for Newcastle, finding the back of the net 46 times and contributing 11 assists to his team’s cause. Additionally, he has donned the England national team jersey in 9 matches, where he exhibited his goal-scoring prowess by notching 2 goals.
The ambitious move by AC Milan to acquire the seasoned striker from Newcastle is gaining momentum, with the San Siro outfit expressing a strong desire to finalize the deal in the imminent days.
Despite Newcastle’s reluctance to part ways with their prolific forward, AC Milan are pushing for a permanent transfer during the ongoing transfer window. Reports from The Mail suggest that Newcastle are now entering the crucial phase of deciding the financial terms they are willing to accept for the 31-year-old striker.
The time factor adds an intriguing dimension to the negotiations, given that Wilson has a mere 18 months remaining on his current contract with Newcastle. Nevertheless, he remains a vital cog in the managerial plans of Eddie Howe, who values Wilson’s contributions on the pitch.

The negotiation process between the two clubs is poised to shape the destiny of Wilson’s career, with Milan eyeing a strategic acquisition to enhance their chances in Serie A.
