Newcastle United have announced that striker Callum Wilson has signed a one-year contract extension with the club.
The 31-year-old was due to see his original deal expire at the end of this season, but he has now decided to commit his future to the Magpies until the summer of 2025.
Wilson has established himself as a clinical goalscorer at Newcastle since joining from Bournemouth in 2020, scoring 40 goals in 79 league appearances.
The England international has been Newcastle's leading scorer for the past three seasons, and he found the net 18 times in 31 Premier League games last season to help Eddie Howe's side secure a top-four finish and qualify for the Champions League.
Wilson, who has since scored twice in four top-flight games so far this term, currently sits fifth on the club's all-time Premier League goalscorers chart, just one goal behind Les Ferdinand and eight behind club legend Alan Shearer in second place.
"I'm delighted to extend my time here," Wilson told nufc.com. "It's a fantastic football club, I've been welcomed ever since I came through the door and now the club's going in a fantastic direction and on a journey so it's nice to commit my future to be to being a part of that.
"We've got some great things to look forward to and I think being around here, the city, fan base, is what players dream of so I can't wait to be around for the next few years.
"When I first joined the club, I had ambitions to come back to the Premier League having been relegated with Bournemouth and over the first few interviews I mentioned Europe and I mentioned getting to 100 Premier League goals.
"They were ambitions of mine and they still are. I'm close to get into the '100 Club' and also becoming the second all-time Premier League scorer for Newcastle would be an amazing achievement, having looked up to Shearer for many years.
"There's so many fantastic names that have been before me at Newcastle - goalscorers who have worn the number nine - and it'd be nice to join them in the record books during my time here."
Magpies manager Howe, who previously worked with Wilson at Bournemouth, added: "We're very pleased because Callum has been an integral part of our success.
"He's an outstanding person, an outstanding footballer and I'm delighted he's going to be with us for longer.
"He's an incredibly motivated person and I've never seen Callum not motivated to score goals. I think that's a great thing for a striker.
"He's always there in training and in games, wanting to score goals, and I'm sure that'll be driving him on to achieve more and more with Newcastle United at a very exciting time for the club."
Newcastle's No.9 will be in contention to play for Howe's side when they welcome Brentford to St James' Park for a Premier League clash on Saturday evening. body check tags ::
