Newcastle United is contemplating the departure of 32-year-old forward Callum Wilson in the forthcoming winter transfer window. Although he has made significant contributions in the past and brings valuable experience, the club is keen to revitalize their attacking lineup with a player who possesses a different style.

While Wilson's contract remains valid, his future appears to be away from St James' Park as the club gears up for notable changes in their forward lineup.
