Callum Wilson happy to pen 4-year Bournemouth deal

Callum Wilson has penned a new four-year deal with Bournemouth.

The 26-year-old striker will remain at Vitality Stadium until at least the summer of 2022.

He told the club website: “I'm delighted to sign. It's nice that the hard work I've put in has been rewarded and I'm excited about the future.

“During my time at the club, I feel I've developed both physically and mentally.

“I've progressed and learned a lot about the game and the position I play."

Cherries chief executive Neill Blake said: “Callum is natural goalscorer and has proved over the past three seasons that he can do it at the highest level, so this new contract is fully deserved.

“To overcome the injuries he has suffered and still be performing in the Premier League week in, week out, speaks volumes about his mental strength, desire and dedication.

“Callum is an infectious character, a winner and a big part of the dressing room. Therefore, I'm delighted he is committed to the club and to helping us achieve our targets."
