The Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson has committed his future to the club by signing a new four-year contract to ward off interest from several other Premier League clubs.
The 24-year-old, who was the subject of an offer from West Ham in May and has also been tracked by Tottenham, scored five Premier League goals in his first six starts before being ruled out for most of last season with a knee injury.
Bournemouth’s chief executive Neill Blake said: “We’re absolutely delighted that Callum has signed a new four-year deal.
“Callum has constantly improved during his time here and only his injury stopped him from having a big impact in the Premier League last year.
“Now back to full fitness, we’re excited to see Callum continue to improve over the next four years.”
Earlier on Friday, the Scotland winger Matt Ritchie left Bournemouth for Newcastle United in a deal that could be worth up to £12m – a new record transfer for a Championship club.
