Striker understood to be dissatisfied with life under Nuno
West Ham have signed two strikers this month
Callum Wilson is in talks to leave West Ham five months after joining. It is understood the striker has grown dissatisfied with life under Nuno Espírito Santo and wants a new challenge.
Wilson was signed on a cheap incentivised one-year deal and his situation is an apparent sign of wider discontent within the squad over their manager. The Guardian has reported that Nuno, whose side are at increasing risk of relegation from the Premier League, is in danger of losing the dressing room’s support because of concerns over his tactics and man-management.
It is unclear how quickly an agreement will be reached for Wilson to leave West Ham, who are 18th before Tuesday’s pivotal home game against Nottingham Forest. It remains to be seen whether the 33-year-old leaves as a free agent or whether West Ham look to sell him. There are indications that the former Newcastle striker’s departure may come towards the end of the transfer window.
