According to official news from West Ham United, Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson is exempted from signing.

Wilson, 33, has played nine times for the England national team. He left Newcastle after his contract expired on June 30 because the club decided not to extend his contract. The two sides had negotiated a new, more motivating contract, but failed to reach an agreement.

Wilson transferred from Bournemouth to Newcastle in the summer of 2020, scoring 49 goals in 130 games in Newcastle. In the 2022-23 season, he scored a career-high 18 Premier League goals, but he mainly served as a substitute for Isaac due to injuries in the past two seasons. Due to injury last season, he only played for Newcastle in 22 games and scored 1 goal.
