Callum Wilson hailed the timing of his return to form with Newcastle as he flew out with England for the World Cup following his first call-up in three years.

The 30-year-old earned something of a surprise recall for Gareth Southgate’s World Cup squad, beating the likes of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Ivan Toney and Tammy Abraham for a spot in the 26-man group.
