Callum Wilson

I have a soft spot for footballers who arrive the hard way, and Callum Wilson is a textbook case. Coming up through hometown Coventry City, then being shipped out on loan to non-league sides like Kettering and Tamworth, he earned his striker's instincts in the trenches rather than an academy bubble. That detour is exactly why I rate him: the scrappiness never left, and it shows in his finishing. A 180 cm frame leading the line with a poacher's nose, Wilson embodies the grafter's path to the top flight, and I think the long road sharpened the goalscorer.
