Callum Wilson, born on 27 February 1992 (age 34), is an English striker with Brentford, where he wears squad number 13. His market value is around £3.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Wilson came through at Coventry City, and his early loan spells gave him the senior football that young strikers tend to need before anyone believes their goals count properly. The breakthrough came back at Coventry in 2013-14, when he scored 21 league goals in 37 appearances – still the most productive league season of his career.
That form took him to Bournemouth, where he became a Premier League striker rather than just a promising one. He later moved on to Newcastle United and built a career around penalty-box movement, direct running and finishing, with the usual wear and tear that comes with playing centre-forward in England.
At Brentford in 2026-27, Wilson has made 12 appearances in all competitions, including seven in the Premier League, two in the FA Cup and three in the League Cup, where he has scored three goals. His career has been a steady climb from Coventry’s academy and lower-league loans to a long spell as a recognised Premier League striker.
