Download file using ASP.NET Core

I´m trying to download a excel file after the file is created but is not working.

The file is created successfully, the problem is in the download method.

Here´s the code:

   private readonly IHostingEnvironment _hostingEnvironment;
    public EmployeeController(ApplicationDbContext context, IHostingEnvironment hostingEnvironment)
    {
        _hostingEnvironment = hostingEnvironment;
    }
    public void createFile()
    {
        string wwwrootPath = _hostingEnvironment.WebRootPath;
        string fileName = @"Employees.xlsx";
        FileInfo file = new FileInfo(Path.Combine(wwwrootPath, fileName));

        if (file.Exists)
        {
            file.Delete();
            file = new FileInfo(Path.Combine(wwwrootPath, fileName));
        }
        using (ExcelPackage package = new ExcelPackage(file))
        {
            ExcelWorksheet worksheet = package.Workbook.Worksheets.Add("Employee");
            worksheet.Cells[1, 1].Value = "ID";
            worksheet.Cells[1, 2].Value = "Name";
            worksheet.Cells[1, 3].Value = "Gender";
            worksheet.Cells[1, 4].Value = "Salary (in $)";

            worksheet.Cells["A2"].Value = 1000;
            worksheet.Cells["B2"].Value = "Jon";
            worksheet.Cells["C2"].Value = "M";
            worksheet.Cells["D2"].Value = 5000;

            worksheet.Cells["A3"].Value = 1001;
            worksheet.Cells["B3"].Value = "Graham";
            worksheet.Cells["C3"].Value = "M";
            worksheet.Cells["D3"].Value = 10000;

            worksheet.Cells["A4"].Value = 1002;
            worksheet.Cells["B4"].Value = "Jenny";
            worksheet.Cells["C4"].Value = "F";
            worksheet.Cells["D4"].Value = 5000;

            package.Save();
            downloadFile(wwwrootPath);

        }

}
    public FileResult downloadFile(string filePath)
    {
            IFileProvider provider = new PhysicalFileProvider(filePath);
            IFileInfo fileInfo = provider.GetFileInfo(fileName);
            var readStream = fileInfo.CreateReadStream();
            var mimeType = "application/vnd.ms-excel";
            return File(readStream, mimeType, fileName);
    }

Note: I didn´t make the deploy of the project in IIS.

Best Regards
