Callum Wilson (born 23 June 1999) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Forfar Athletic.[1]

Career

Wilson began his career at Partick Thistle; he moved on loan to Elgin City in February 2019.[2][3] Wilson left Thistle in January 2020.[4]

After leaving Thistle, Wilson moved to Scottish League One side Dumbarton in January 2020.[5] After making just five appearances for the club, he was released in July 2020,[6]

Wilson then signed for Albion Rovers later that month.[7] Wilson would go on to play over 100 games for Albion Rovers in all competitions.[8]

Wilson rejoined Dumbarton in May 2023 following Rovers' relegation to the Lowland Football League.[8] After a serious ankle injury,[9] he eventually made his second debut for the club in March 2024, playing 60 minutes in a 6–2 victory against The Spartans.[10] That would be one of just six appearances he would make for the club as they were promoted to Scottish League One, with Wilson leaving the club in May 2024.[11]

Upon leaving Dumbarton, Wilson joined Lowland League club Cumbernauld Colts.[12] He moved to Forfar Athletic in January 2026.[13]
