Callum Wilson has been watching a lot of football. It wasn’t all preparation for a month of punditry. He feels he has watched too much in the last few months; the last two years, really. And not from the DAZN studio or a gantry but the dugout. During his time analysing the Club World Cup, he became a footballer without a club, his stay at Newcastle ending when his contract expired. Yet it will not prompt a free transfer to any of the sport’s broadcasters. Not yet, anyway.
“I am 33. I have still got so much to give in the game,” he said. “I feel mentally and physically still able to more than contribute in however many games in a season.”
