West Ham United could look to make a move for Callum Wilson, with Newcastle United open to selling the striker in the January transfer window.

Callum Wilson h🍷as been an outstanding performer for the Magpies, scoring 46 goals in 102 games for the club in all competitions.

There were suggestions that Newcastle ꦡwo🍌uld rather sell Miguel Almiron over Wilson or Kieran Trippier. But 🔯perhaps Wilson could indeed leave the Magpies before the January window shuts.

Arsenal and Chelsea are in the mix to sign Wilson. But according to Sportslens, West Ham could also targ🌠et the 31-yea𒆙r-old.

Journalist Dean Jones noted in the report that the Hammers have been looking closely at striker options in this wind♛ow. And thus, a move for Wil♑son could come onto the agenda.

Move would be a risk, but could be inspired

West Ham fans would certainly welcome another g🔯oalscorer cominꩵg in. Danny Ings has proved to be an underwhelming signing, while Michail Antonio – who hosts The Footballer’s Football Podcast alongside Wilson – has only scored twice in the Premier League this season.

Wilson meanwhile, is on seven goals. And he is 🎀14 away from re🌼aching a century in his Premier League career.

Obviously, he is coming towards the🔜 end of his peak. And he has suffered with serious injuries in the past. He has been on the sidelines on a couple of occasions this seaso🃏n.

But if he can repli🌼cate his record for Newcastle for West Ham, he could arguably be a very shrewd addition with David Moyes’ men in with a chance of enjoying anotherܫ impressive season.

He may not be the long-term answer. But Wilson is an ‘‘ goalscorer on his day. So i♊t could prove to be a bargain at £18 million.
