West Ham manager David Moyes has admitted his interest in signing Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere after the New Year.
Wilshere is out of contract at the Emirates at the end of the season, and is set to sign a new deal, fuelling speculation he could be on his way out of North London having fallen out of favour with manager Arsene Wenger.
The Englishman was shipped out on-loan to Bournemouth last season, however after returning to Arsenal in the summer has failed to establish himself as a regular in the first-team.
As well as Moyes admitting his interest, former England U21 manager Ray Wilkins believes it would be a solid signing for the Hammers.
The pundit said on TalkSPORT: “I think 25 years of age, I don’t know how much you’d have to pay, but because Arsene doesn’t play him, he needs to move. I’d love to see him play, because I think he could get to the World Cup. I’d snap him up all day long, I really would.
“London guy, his family are West Ham supporters, why not go to West Ham? David Moyes has them rocking at the moment.”
The Claret and Blue army seem delighted with the latest rumours linking them with Wilshere …
be so good for us and linking up with lanzini !!!!!
