Overview

  • Wilson’s West Ham contract features a minimal base salary supplemented by bonuses for goals and appearances, mirroring a pay-as-you-play model he declined at Newcastle United.
  • Agent Will Salthouse leveraged his relationship with David Sullivan to fast-track personal terms discussions in recent days.
  • Incentive-based agreements have surged as Premier League clubs seek to manage costs under profit and sustainability rules.
  • Newcastle United have stepped up their search for a new striker and are exploring targets such as Brentford’s Yoane Wissa.
  • Across five seasons at St James’ Park, Wilson scored 49 goals and provided 11 assists in 130 appearances but battled injuries that limited his final campaign.
