Sky Sports understands Bournemouth are lining up a move for Coventry City's promising striker Callum Wilson.
Bournemouth appear likely to lose top scorer Lewis Grabban after Cardiff City triggered a release clause in the striker's contract.
Middlesbrough have also shown an interest in Grabban and Bournemouth look to be weighing up replacements for the former Millwall forward.
Wilson scored 21 goals for Coventry in League 1 this season and was also named the division's player of the month for March.
The 22-year-old signed a new contract at Coventry last October to stay until the summer of 2015 and manager Steven Pressley has previously expressed his determination to keep Wilson.

Bournemouth. Does that mean they are a bigger club than us now? I don't know the answer anymore.

ccfc92 · May 19, 2014

Only a matter of time before he's sold unfortunately

skybluetony176 · May 19, 2014

Fucking Bournemouth! Cheers sisu, are we at the bottom of the cycle yet?

ajsccfc · May 19, 2014

Let's not start pretending that sepia-tinted reputation trumps league position.

It's called speculation..

If Wilson had been sold I could maybe understand your anger..

Remember that Christie was close to signing for Huddersfield.. It means nothing.

£5million or f**k off!

paulw · May 19, 2014

Without a doubt Bournmouth will not be able to afford him. They will get £3million from Cardiff but will not want to spend that on one player. Because Wilson is with a Div 1 club does not mean he is a Div 1 player. He is one of the best up and coming English forward since Sturridge. If he goes he WILL go for £3 million +.

Bournemouth are owned by the Russians aren't they? I think they could afford him if they wanted.

Well they're more ambitious, that's for sure.

Actually I'm struggling to think of a club with less ambition than us.

not a chance. Wells did it from more than one season in this league and went fro £1.3 million.

I'd be surprised if we got £2 million for him, and that would include add on's

WONDERLAMPS · May 19, 2014

Forest linked and Wolves who would apparently do a cash plus leon clarke deal for him.

James Smith · May 19, 2014

I'd very reluctant to see him go.

Yeah obviously it's not up to us as we don't own the club, but I'd be sorry to see him go, especially as he said he wants to stay with us.

Kingokings204 · May 19, 2014

I think lawyers cost money and 7 lawyers in all these court cases cost money. Money will talk as always.

Nick · May 19, 2014

Money talks for any lower league club with a player like Wilson, doesn't matter about lawyers etc.

I personally hope we can keep hold of him though.

I know - it was all those legal bills that forced us to sell Dennis Mortimer I'm the 70's

italiahorse · May 19, 2014

When the mighty Bournemouth step in who can resist.

It's the way that even paper talk about our players leaving is as if we are a little club with no ambition ............ Oh hold on.

Actually, Wells did it for less than a season in this league. He did it the season before but in L2.

Nick · May 19, 2014

What happened to Paddy Madden? He did it for one season.

lol fair point but you missed my point. If maybe sisu didn't have as much to fork out on lawyers etc then maybe keeping hold of Wilson and murphy would be more likely. You know the two players who kept us in this league.

I think he was 23 and went for 1.5 million plus add ons as well.

Callum is younger has abundance of pace and finishing. With him been younger clubs will fancy moulding him to their satisfaction.

When he goes I hope it is for at least 2 million and that 2 million is given directly to SP on top of the set budget for the wages for 4 decent strikers a decent CB. A decent centre mid and a back up goalie.

Wilson will not go for £3m+, stop being silly.

skybluelee · May 19, 2014

He will go though.

But what other than a rumour says we will sell Wilson? It's just the same as the Cyrus Christie rumour in the summer or the Leon Clarke rumour to Sheffield United, it's speculation until there is something concrete, on this occasion I think this isn't particularly likely as they only signed Rantie a year ago for £2,000,000 who is a similar player to Wilson..

Spot on, sadly. With these sisu losers at the helm we are on an ever downward spiral. It beggars belief that there are so called fans who accept this fact, bunch of losers !

Its the speculation that I'm pissed about Rob.

If someone had have said to me 6years ago that Bournemouth and signing or star player would ever have been mentioned in the same breath I would have told them that they were having a laugh. I'm you and any other CCFC fan would have said the same.

The biggest factor in why we are where we are is because of our inept owners and their laughable decision making.

Based on this speculation and the fact that it can happens means it's only right to ask if we're at the bottom of the cycle yet.

I feel your anger Tony I really do, but it shows how quickly things can change and it also highlights that this issue has been an issue that has been running since Pre-Sisu and that there ownership has transpired in the trigger being pulled of the loaded gun.

On a vocal minority to be fair

That's a fair point Rob.

I would have preferred it that sisu unloaded the gun rather than pull the trigger though. After all that's what they were promising when they arrived. I'm just glad I didn't have any shares that I could have "trusted" them with. Those that did must be more pissed than any of us.

sw88 · May 19, 2014

If he went to Bournemouth I think I would cry. Lots. And I don't cry. Ever.

I wouldn't begrudge him a move, although I think he needs to prove himself over atleast one more season with us, but to go to Bournemouth would be very disappointing.

SlowerThanPlatt · May 19, 2014

I think £2m tops for Wilson.
