Callum Wilson has been presented with a potential way out of the London Stadium.
Wilson is eager to depart West Ham on a free transfer this month, despite his deal running until the summer, with a mutual termination believed to be edging closer.
The 33-year-old has featured 17 times in the Premier League and found the net on four occasions for West Ham this campaign, but he has since slipped down the hierarchy following recent transfer business.
Pablo finalised his switch to West Ham from Gil Vicente on 2 January, before Taty Castellanos arrived at the Hammers just three days later from Lazio.
Celtic test Callum Wilson transfer waters:
Wilson appears determined to leave West Ham before the window closes, and interest in his services remains strong.
Sevilla have been closely associated with Wilson, with the seasoned forward keen to show he can still be a leading figure for a club prepared to back him.
However, if a move to Spain is not his preferred option, Celtic have now made an approach regarding his situation, according to Sky Sports reporter Anthony Joseph.
It is understood that Celtic are seeking to assess Wilson’s openness to a switch to Glasgow this month, though Martin O’Neill’s side face rivalry from teams in England and Saudi Arabia.
That said, Callum Wilson may have offered a significant hint about his West Ham departure amid Celtic’s interest.
Wilson is among several players strongly linked with a move to Glasgow’s east end as the club intensifies its search for a striker this month. The Hoops stepped up their interest on Thursday after making contact with the 33-year-old’s representatives to determine his willingness to relocate to Glasgow’s East End and clarify the timing of his exit from the Hammers.
Wilson is expected to become a free agent in the coming days as he prepares to terminate his contract with the relegation-threatened Premier League outfit, with Everton and Sevilla also poised to act once he is available. However, the nine-time England international appears to have suggested that an agreement is not yet close.
Ahead of Saturday’s clash with Tottenham, Wilson shared images of himself training at Rush Green on his Instagram story. This suggests the forward remains involved with the London side for now.
Manager Nuno was non-committal when questioned about the player’s situation ahead of the Spurs fixture, saying: “We are working on ins and outs. I feel that we need to rebalance our squad and bring in more options for some positions and also find the best solutions for the players that are not having minutes, to go and proceed with their careers.”
