Callum Wilson has teased that is nearing a return to action for Newcastle United after several months on the sidelines.
The Magpies' top scorer has not played since hobbling off with a calf issue in the 1-1 draw against Manchester United back in December. It was originally thought that Wilson would be ruled out for a couple of months, but the striker's recovery took longer than he hoped.
Wilson has travelled to Dubai and London for specialist treatment and the number nine has been working hard with the club's sports science teams in recent weeks. Although Eddie Howe confirmed that Wilson had not yet joined in with group training last week, the Newcastle head coach added that the 30-year-old was 'edging closer'.
