Callum Wilson admits he is not 'deluded' when it comes to his role in England's World Cup squad as Harry Kane's understudy. The England captain has been in fine form this season so far for Tottenham, and scored six times at the 2018 edition of the competition to win the Golden Boot.
Kane is expected to lead the line for the Three Lions in Qatar, with Wilson and Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford providing cover through the middle. Newcastle's number nine has netted six times this season, and earned his first call-up in three years at the expense of the likes of Tammy Abraham and Ivan Toney.
It is an unprecedented turnaround for Gareth Southgate and his squad, with the World Cup getting under way just a week on from the latest Premier League fixture. England begin their campaign with a Group B clash with Iran, which will be followed by matches against the USA and Wales.
