Tottenham set to sign Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson
There has been intense speculation surrounding the future of Callum Wilson in the last period.
According to the football transfer rumours in British media, Tottenham are set to sign Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson.
The 28-year-old has been subject to interest from various Premier League clubs.
Bournemouth spent 3.7 million euros to sign the England international
from Coventry City in the summer of 2014. The 28-year-old has three years left on his current contract which expires in 2023.
The striker has featured in 39 matches for Bournemouth this term, netting 9 goals and providing 3 assists in all competitions.
Callum Wilson has represented England at Under-21 level, winning one cap, before making his senior international debut in November 2018. As a member of England national football team, Wilson won four caps and he scored one goal.
The 28-year-old is one of the more likely players to be offloaded by Bournemouth this summer and the list of suitors in the England international continues to grow.
His performances have seen him become the target of many Premier League clubs including Tottenham.
Wilson is widely regarded as a key transfer target for Tottenham this summer. He is a long-term target of Tottenham and could be a decent addition for Jose Mourinho’s side.
His tricky dribbling, fantastic shot and pace make him a nightmare for any defender to defend.
Spurs are desperate to make an impact in the summer transfer window.
According to the report, “Bournemouth are keeping to their valuation for England striker Callum Wilson. The Daily Mail says Tottenham will turn their attentions to finally signing an understudy to Harry Kane after completing their swoop for keeper Joe Hart on Tuesday. Wilson is among the names Spurs are considering in their search for a bona-fide back-up striker to Kane – though his £30million valuation could prove a stumbling block with Jose Mourinho working to a stringent budget. Mourinho wants to bolster his striking options this summer having watched his team’s Champions League options flounder without Kane last season, who missed much of the campaign through injury. West Ham, Everton and Crystal Palace are also keen on the 28-year-old – and the fact those clubs could be willing to offer Wilson more regular first-team football may prove a factor.”
