Newcastle striker Wilson ruled out for remainder of 2020-21 season due to hamstring injury

The Magpies frontman will sit out the club's final three fixtures of the campaign due to an issue picked up in last week's win at Leicester City

Newcastle striker Callum Wilson has been ruled out of action for the remainder of the 2020-21 season due to a hamstring injury.

Wilson scored twice in Newcastle's impressive 4-2 victory at high-flying Leicester City last week which ultimately ensured their Premier League safety, with 18th place Fulham's relegation confirmed after their 2-0 defeat to Burnley on Monday.

However, the Magpies have now revealed that the 29-year-old picked up a knock during the clash at the King Power Stadium that will keep him out of their final three fixtures.
