Newcastle United’s Callum Wilson is reportedly preparing to have surgery following a recent injury.

The former Bournemouth striker, last in action against Nottingham Forest, injured his pectoral muscle and is now set for a significant spell on the sidelines.

Wilson’s latest setback will serve as a major blow to Eddie Howe, who is already struggling with several injuries, including one to striker Alexander Isak, and although there is hope the Swede can return soon, there are no guarantees he’ll be ready in time to play against Bournemouth on Saturday.

Should Wilson be out for the full three months, he would return for Newcastle’s final Premier League game of the season, which takes place at the Community Stadium, against Brentford on 19th May.
