import ‘package:url_launcher/url_launcher.dart’;

Add Phone Call function in your dart File

void makePhoneCalling(String phoneNum) async {
  final num = 'tel:$phoneNum';
  if (await canLaunch(num)) {
    await launch(num);
  } else {
    throw 'Could not launch $num';
  }
}

Call your method makePhoneCalling

  onPressed: () => makePhoneCall('1234567890'),
