He signed a professional deal, which saw him stay at the club for a further season, on 16 March 2010. Wilson became the first Coventry City youth teamer to win the national award for apprentice of the month in March 2010.

Wilson made his league debut when he came on as a substitute against Queens Park Rangers in December 2010. He made his first appearance of the 2012–13 season in a 1–0 loss against Carlisle United coming on as a substitute for Carl Baker.

The start of the 2013–14 season saw Wilson establish himself in the starting line-up. Forming strike partnership Leon Clarke, after just 11 league games Wilson had scored 10 goals, topping the League One scoring charts. He finished the season as League One's third-top scorer with 22 goals and also earned himself a place in the League One Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) Team of the Year, despite having spent two months out with a dislocated shoulder in early 2014. Wilson won League One Player of the month award for March, and also won his club's Top Goalscorer award, Player's Player award voted for by his teammates and the Player of the season award voted for by Coventry City fans.

On 29 December 2011, he was loaned to Conference Premier club Tamworth on a one-month loan. He made his debut for the club in a 2–2 draw with Alfreton Town, where he played the full game. He scored in just his second game for the club with a curling shot in a 2–1 defeat against Wrexham on 14 January. Wilson suffered a fractured foot in his third appearance for the Lambs which saw his short loan spell end.

On 4 July 2014, Wilson signed for AFC Bournemouth for an undisclosed fee, believed to be in the region of £3 million, after spending five years at Coventry. He scored twice on his debut for the club, in a 4–0 win against Huddersfield Town.

In his first season at the club, Wilson helped them achieve promotion to the Premier League for the first time in the club's history, becoming the team's top scorer for that season in the process, scoring 20 league goals. He was Bournemouth's only player to score in all three domestic competitions, scoring the winning goal in a 2–1 victory against West Bromwich Albion in the fourth round of the League Cup.

On 22 August 2015, Wilson scored his first Premier League goals with a hat-trick against West Ham United. On 26 September 2015, he ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in the match against Stoke City and was expected to be out for about six months. Wilson made his return on 9 April 2016 as an injury-time substitute in Bournemouth's 2–1 win away to Aston Villa. He ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee on 1 February 2017 and was expected to be out for about six months.

Roy Keane has a 'DINOSAUR mentality', blasts West Ham striker Michail Antonio - after Man United legend made thinly-veiled dig at him for podcasting and 'having a laugh' after defeats

Michail Antonio (left) has hit out at Roy Keane's (right) 'dinosaur mentality' after the Manchester United legend criticised players who host podcasts. The West Ham striker has co-hosted the BBC Sounds Footballer's Football podcast since 2021 along with Callum Wilson, and more recently, Fulham captain Tom Cairney. Keane, without mentioning any names, told the Stick to Football podcast: 'I think that [podcasts] can be a distraction for a player, particularly if you're on the back of a defeat, and you're in the next day and everyone is having a bit of a laugh.' Antonio, in his latest podcast with Cairney, has swiped back at the Manchester United legend and explained the advantages of hosting them.

Eddie Howe has warned Newcastle's hierarchy it will cost a lot of money to replace Callum Wilson, should the club decide to sell him this summer.

Wilson's record, when fit, is unquestionable, and he has scored 46 times from 77 starts in black and white. He went to the 2022 World Cup with England on the back of a scoring streak at the start of last season.
