GOALKEEPER Asmir Begovic has tipped Callum Wilson to get among the goals in the Premier League.
The 25-year-old frontman made his first start in the top flight since January in the 1-0 victory against Newcastle last time out, having recovered from a serious knee injury.
Wilson came off the bench a week previously during the home defeat to Chelsea, replacing the injured Benik Afobe for the final 16 minutes against the Blues.
The striker did find the net in Cherries’ 3-1 Carabao Cup victory over Middlesbrough last month – his first appearance back in the first team.
Both Begovic and Wilson could feature tomorrow when Cherries host Huddersfield Town at Vitality Stadium (3pm).
And the 30-year-old stopper is confident it will only be a matter of time before Wilson nets his first top-flight goal of the season.
Begovic told the Daily Echo: “Having met Cal over the past few months, he is a great guy, a bubbly character and a very good footballer.
“He has put in a lot of work and hopefully the Premier League goal he deserves will come round very soon.”
