Spurs and West Ham in transfer war for injured BPL scoring machine

Posted by

AFC Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson was arguably the best striker in the Premier League for the first two months of the season, scoring five goals in his first seven games, before an injury effectively ended his season. But Wilson has so much potential that two top-quality Premier League teams are looking to add the English forward to their ranks.

According to the Sun, Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino is very interested in bring Wilson to White Hart Lane to serve as a sub for Harry Kane. Per the source, West Ham United are also interested in having Wilson replace the potentially-departing Diafra Sakho.

During the 2013-14 season, Wilson scored 20 goals in the Championship Division as Bournemouth earned promotion to the Premier League for the first time in club history. The year before, in a breakout city with League One’s Coventry City, Wilson scored 21 league goals and 22 total goals.
