Do you remember the first time you're on match today?

Yeah, of course. I think I still have it on the box somewhere.

Of course, it's nice to see in the Premier League players coming from, you know, international overseas and things like that.

But it's also nice to see stories similar to myself, similar to Semeno, where you've had to graft.

You go from, the boy from Coventry, you've had to graft.

You go from, away from Coventure, you're playing Wolf with Robbie Williams.

It's like, what the hell?

I'm sitting here because hard work has got me here.

Yeah, just you're living a childhood dream, I guess. Hello and welcome back to one-on-one the podcast where the Premier League's biggest names come in for a chat.

I'm Joe Tomlinson.

Remember on the last podcast I said I wouldn't speak to you again for a couple of weeks unless we had some news, well we have some news.

Because on the last day of 2025, I went to see Callan Wilson at the West Ham United Training Ground, and we had an absolutely delightful chat. But as Sky Sports News reported, it seems that Callum won't be hanging around at the Hammers for very long, as the club looked towards their fight to stay in the Premier League. Wilson only joined West Ham from Newcastle in the summer. Before the Magpies, he made a name for himself, banging them in for Bournemouth when he won the championship and worked under the brilliant Eddie Howe. Working backwards for his football timeline, Bournemouth had picked the striker up from his hometown club of Coventry City, which included a couple of non-league loans. But it was Callum's early career that I wanted to talk

to him about most, because unlike a lot of professional footballers these days, he was actually

playing grassroots football until his late teens. So this is a proper, proper footballing journey,

from Sunday League to League one, onto the championship and the Premier League, and even a World

Cup with England.

Truly fairy tale stuff.

So as he seemingly prepares to embark on the next phase

of his remarkable career

and with one eye still on another World Cup this summer,

this is my one-on-one with Callum Wilson.

Callum Wilson! Brilliant! It's a cracker from Callum Wilson.
