According to UK betting sites, Crystal Palace are favourites to sign Newcastle star, Callum Wilson, as the Eagles look to strengthen next season.

The former Bournemouth striker has cemented himself as a household name in the Premier League, after successful years in the EFL with the Cherries.

Wilson has made 197 appearances in the top division, scoring 76 goals in the process. His performances have earned him several call-ups to Gareth Southgate’s England squad, as he scored in England’s 6-2 win over Iran at the 2022 World Cup.

This season has been fruitful for the 31-year-old, as he has scored 15 league goals, including a run of five goals in his last five games.

However, with the emergence of summer signing, Alexander Isak, the former Coventry City striker has been utilised as an impact substitution, making nine appearances from the bench.

Newcastle look set to finish in a Champions League spot for the first time in 20 years and may be on the hunt for additions in the summer.

Crystal Palace have found a new lease of life under Roy Hodgson, as the veteran manager returned for his second spell at the club back in March.

The Eagles have moved out of relegation contention, with wins over West Ham, Leeds and Leicester maintaining their Premier League status.

However, their striking options have been far from prolific, with Eberechi Eze leading the club’s goal scoring rankings with just eight goals.

Wilson’s contract with the Magpies runs out in 2024 and talks over a new deal are yet to begin, meaning a move in the coming window is possible.

Hodgson’s side are not the only club that could be in for the Newcastle star, as Aston Villa are also a possible option as Ollie Watkins looks set to leave after a superb campaign.
