Callum Wilson believes Nick Pope has been Newcastle United’s standout performer in 2022-23. A campaign featuring a Champions League push is going to provoke debates over the annual player of the season award in May.
Joelinton won the honour last year for his remarkable renaissance on Tyneside. However, as it stands, several candidates could stake a claim for the prize this time around.
Toon number nine Wilson thinks Pope deserves special recognition for his efforts between the sticks. Newcastle have kept a club record 10 league clean sheets in a row, owing much to the heroics of the England goalkeeper.
