Leeds consulted with him about a potential move.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"3805\" data-end=\"3940\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Leeds_needs_Callum_Wilson\"><\/span>Leeds needs Callum Wilson<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"3942\" data-end=\"4112\">Wilson has played consistently in the Premier League and could be a wise signing, especially with a free transfer. He brings the ability to score experience and goals. Wilson scored 88 goals in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4114\" data-end=\"4356\">His contribution to Newcastle has repeatedly caused injuries to hamper his consistency, despite preventing them from winning the EFL Cup and qualifying for the Champions League. If he can stay healthy, he will become a valuable asset for most Premier League teams.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4358\" data-end=\"4575\">Wilson hopes to revive his career in regular football, and Leeds can offer him the opportunity. As one of the largest clubs in the country, the opportunity to join them is appealing to players.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4577\" data-end=\"4741\">Meanwhile, Leeds will have to improve their teams to survive in the Premier League. They need more goals and signing a trustworthy forward like Wilson is a wise move.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4743\" data-end=\"4941\">He was once important to Newcastle, but he is no longer at the heart of their plans. As a result, his contract was not renewed. The distance travelling makes sense for Wilson, who is looking for a new start. Burnley is also enthusiastic about Wilson.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4743\" data-end=\"4941\">\n<h2 data-start=\"4743\" data-end=\"4941\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Signing_Wilson_with_free_transfer_would_be_a_wise_decision\"><\/span>Signing Wilson with free transfer would be a wise decision<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Warm up for Newcastle United Calm Wilson (Ryan Pierse\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p data-start=\"4943\" data-end=\"5220\">If Leeds can secure deals with players, that would be a wise move, especially given the need to strengthen multiple areas of the team. Signing a proven striker like Wilson for free will help you invest more in other divisions and build a competitiveness for the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4943\" data-end=\"5220\">It remains to be seen whether Leeds will be able to finalize an agreement with the 33-year-old striker.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A detailed view of the corner flags before the third round replay match of the Emirates FA Cup.
