Former Premier League striker Kevin Campbell believes that Newcastle manager Eddie Howe doesn’t trust his centre-forward Callum Wilson.
Speaking to Football Insider, the pundit made it clear he felt the Magpies could do with replacing the injury-prone Wilson up front.
“I think Newcastle are looking at someone at the top end of the pitch who is young and they can trust,” Campbell said.
“Callum Wilson is a very good player (and) an England international, but he’s suffered injury after injury. It’s very difficult when you haven’t got your main man at the top end of the pitch.”
It remains to be seen who Newcastle will bring in this summer, but so far they’ve been linked with a number of promising young players like Armando Broja and Hugo Ekitike.
