Callum Wilson has ultimate chance to prove West Ham wrong amid Hull City update

Callum Wilson could join Hull City when he leaves West Ham United.

The Englishman only completed his move to the London Stadium last summer after his Newcastle United exit.

It was a deal that hardly went down well with the claret and blue faithful as he didn't fit the profile many wanted Graham Potter's side to sign.

There was a point midway through the campaign where his contract looked set to be terminated, but that didn't happen in the end.

He did ultimately change opinions in East London and contributed with some big moments, but is still set to depart.

West Ham will be playing Championship football next season, while Wilson could be playing in the Premier League with Hull City.

Hull City considering move for Callum Wilson on free transfer

There was time where the Englishman looked set to leave the Irons in the middle of the season.

He stuck around and then was linked with a new contract towards the end of the campaign in East London.

Wilson has since taken to social media to point towards his imminent departure and that now looks set to go through.

A report from talkSPORT on Tuesday has all-but confirmed that the number nine will be leaving the Hammers after relegation.

That has opened the door to a new move, with Hull City considering an offer to the forward after they earned promotion to the Premier League.

The Tigers are eyeing the free agent market in an effort to prepare their squad after winning the Championship play-off final.

A contract could be tabled to Wilson, while Sergej Jakirovic's side also look set to offer fresh terms to John Egan this summer.

At the end of the day, if Hull believe the striker is good enough for them, why aren't the Irons doing whatever they can to keep hold of the attacker?

West Ham to be proven wrong by Wilson exit

There is bound to be a number of big-name exits from the London Stadium this summer ahead of a season in the second tier.

As frustrating as that may be, it makes it all the more important to keep hold of as many players as possible to maintain some level of continuity.

Wilson isn't going to get the chance to do that, even though he could have been a true star in the Championship next season.

He will depart and has sent a message to say goodbye, but he will still be keen to prove a point.

The ex-Bournemouth man has the perfect chance to do that should he land a switch to Hull City in the Premier League.

If he can score goals for the Tigers, he'll surely leave he East London outfit wishing they had shown him more respect when they had the chance.
