West Ham<\/b><\/a> have blocked plans for striker Callum Wilson to leave the club this month after putting talks over his contract termination on hold.<\/b><\/p>\n

Wilson was in advanced discussions with the club over releasing him from his contract that expires in the summer.<\/p>\n

But a leading Hammers official has stepped in to end those discussions, with Wilson now set to stay at the London Stadium until the end of the season.<\/p>\n

The development comes after Wilson scored a last minute winner in the London derby versus Tottenham<\/a> on Saturday.<\/p>\n

And it has been decided internally that it would be self-defeating to allow Wilson to leave with the club desperately in need of goals in their fight to stay in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Wilson joined the club on a free transfer in the summer, scoring five goals in 19 appearances.<\/p>\n

But the Englishman’s first-team opportunities looked set to become limited following the arrival of forwards of Pablo Felipe and Tati Castellanos this month.<\/p>\n

As a result Wilson and West Ham<\/a> had entered into talks over terminating his deal, in a move that would allow him to find another club as a free transfer.<\/p>\n

But those plans have now been put on hold, with the 33-year-old expected to stay until the summer.<\/p>\n

Speaking earlier this month, Hammers boss Nuno Espirito Santo confirmed talks over his potential exit, saying: “Me and Callum we had a lot of conversations, just 10 minutes ago we were speaking about that situation.<\/p>\n

“Two strikers have joined, correct. I personally decided these strikers have joined. Callum is a very experienced man, he’s been in the game for so much time, he knows that his position has changed.<\/p>\n

“We were honest with each other. Yes, your position has changed, but you are still a player for the club and we still maybe need him and he should help us because he joined us.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
