Wilson back in training

-

ENGLAND striker Callum Wilson has revealed he is back in training ahead of Newcastle’s trip to Manchester City this weekend.

The Magpies No 9 has been sidelined since the 1-1 draw with Manchester United back in December but is still United’s top scorer with six goals.

Former Bournemout­h star Wilson has been working hard to return to action before the end of the campaign and believes he is now fit enough to do so.

Newcastle have two tough games against City and then Arsenal on the horizon, before finishing the campaign away at Burnley, who could be fighting for survival.

Wilson posted a video of himself on social media earlier this week showing him in training and he is glad to be back on the training pitch.

The £20m forward said: “I am fully charged now. I think [the social media post] was a little subtle indication that I’m back, without saying I’m back. It was a little reel of my goals and stuff like that.

“It was more for myself for personal use, but it was quite good and I thought I’d share it with my Instagram followers. I’m back now, training, so it’s been a good week.”
