West Ham United have handed veteran striker Callum Wilson a one year contract extension, despite earlier rumours that he was set to leave the club.
The decision comes as the Hammers look to secure experienced cover for their attacking options ahead of a demanding run of fixtures.
The former Newcastle United forward has proven to be a reliable figure when fit and his leadership in the dressing room is highly valued by the management.
The news provides a boost for the club as they prepare for their FA Cup fifth round tie against Brentford on Monday night.
