Bournemouth were eager to tie him down to a new contract, and they took to their official website to confirm that they have managed to agree a new four-year deal with Wilson.
Wilson told afcbTV:
“I feel like as an individual, my game is constantly improving here at the club. I want to continue that progress and reach even higher targets. I’m really excited about what the future holds.”
Bournemouth chief executive Neill Blake added: “Throughout his time at the club Callum has demonstrated incredible determination to succeed at the highest level - even in the face of adversity in the form of two season-ending injuries.
“He has proved himself as a Premier League striker and is now beginning to establish himself at international level, and this contract is just reward for that.
“We have no desire to lose our best players and this is further evidence of the board’s commitment to keep AFC Bournemouth progressing year on year.”
Last season, Wilson was the Cherries' top scorer, netting 15 goals in all competitions. He earned himself his first call-up to Gareth Southgate's England squad and even netted on his debut - in a 3-0 win over the USA in November.
