Coventry City manager Steven Pressley has made it clear that he wants Callum Wilson in his squad for next season.
Pressley, who again will be working to a tight budget, told the Coventry Telegraph's Andy Turner: “I want him to stay because I want us to have a team full of energy and passion for playing for this club next year, and your own players give you that.
“So I’ll certainly not be looking for any offers for Callum and we don’t want to sell Callum because we want to move forward again next year.
“So I hope we can keep him because there’s no doubt, and I have said all along, how important strikers are to a team, especially when you play with two strikers the way we play. They’re vital.”
If a massive offer were to come in for Wilson then the owners would listen and probably sell and Pressley is well aware that sourcing a suitable replacement is not easy.
“If we were to get a really high bid for Cal it’s not the fact that you have the money, it’s being able to attract a player of Callum's quality in League One,” he said.
“And that’s why developing your own players allows you to sometimes develop players who are better than you can attract to your club in League One.
"And Callum is a good example of that because it would be very difficult for us to go and sign another Callum Wilson because the other Callum Wilsons want to play at a higher level. So that’s the difficulty with replacing him
