Wilson has seen this opportunity and in recent news, he has decided to move his family up to Newcastle in order to cut out travelling times and instead focus on his football in order to put himself in contention for the England World Cup squad contention.

Sky Sports pundit Graves was especially excited about the news and took to Twitter to declare his feelings about Wilson’s chance to start for England. He wrote, “Love this. Without doubt @CallumWilson should be in Southgate’s plans. Natural goalscorer”.
