HAMMER 'N WRONGS

I'll score goals to heal any rift vows Wilson

- by DARREN WELLS

CALLUM WILSON pleaded with West Ham fans to ‘forgive and forget’ after his controversial signing on a one-year contract.

The striker, 33, has joined the Hammers as a free agent after failing to agree a new deal at Newcastle, where he scored 49 goals in 130 appearances during an injury-hit five seasons.

But the England international’s arrival has been met with mixed reaction from West Ham fans, many of whom feel Wilson has disrespected the club in the past.

Wilson has scored more times against West Ham than any other club during his career, with 12 goals in 16 appearances.

His tally includes a controversial late equaliser for Bournemouth in a 3-3 draw in 2017, while he danced in front of his new club's supporters after bagging a brace for Newcastle in a 5-1 drubbing in 2023.
