Plying his trade with the Prime League and senior teams of Singapore S.League club Balestier Khalsa, Wilson once tallied six goals in a Prime League game facing Jurong.[1] However, along with Wisdom Onyekwere, the Nigerian striker was axed from their roster in 2003.[2]

In 2001, Wilson was found to be living in a 3 x 5m storeroom with four other players, besmirching the reputation of Balestier Khalsa and the S.League.[3]
