Wilson pens new Bournemouth deal

 

Bournemouth have announced Callum Wilson has put pen to paper on a new four-year deal keeping him at the club until 2020.

 

Wilson, 24, fired Bournemouth to promotion to the Premier League during his first season at the club but missed most of last season with a serious knee injury.

 

The former England Under-21 international has previously been linked with a move to West Ham but the striker has committed his long-term future to the Cherries.

 

“We’re absolutely delighted that Callum has signed a new four-year deal,” Bournemouth’s chief executive Neill Blake told the club's official website.

 

“Callum has constantly improved during his time here and only his injury stopped him from having a big impact in the Premier League last year”

 

“Now back to full fitness, we’re excited to see Callum continue to improve over the next four years.”
