Jack Wilshere Update

|

Jack Wilshere is expected to be unveiled as a Hammer in the next 48 hours.

The 26-year-old underwent a comprehensive medical examination and scans on Friday with no known problems. He later secretly visited the London Stadium to get the media publicity shots and video recorded of him holding a West Ham shirt.

The contract is agreed and is in place ready for his signature. The former Arsenal midfielder deal is reported to be worth £100,000 per week on a three-year deal. The timing of the official announcement has yet to be agreed but Monday morning is a favourite time for the club.

He is expected to fly out to Switzerland to join the rest of the first team squad on the completion of the deal.

Earlier this week he explained how he and his brother supported the Hammers had West Ham shirts as kids as he came from a West Ham supporting family. He explained his shirt had John Moncur on the back.

    I was reading a piece about Arsenal (sorry but not much else I can face in this heat . It was going on about their fitness bloke who came in recently because Wenger was concerned about their injuries. I hadn’t noticed they improved their injury record but the writer reckoned they have. He claimed this guy got Wilshere sorted. Not sure I am convinced but just sharing a bit of positive news for once 😀😀😀

      Well 64, someone somewhere does seem to have coached the ‘lungeing tackles’ and Banzi style of play out of young Jack Wilshire…??!?!?

  • Hammer64 says:

    Yeah well it could be as basic as that blimelimey. I must admit I haven’t seen much of him. I saw a few Gooner games last season but either he wasn’t playing or I was not looking properly. Probably had my eyes closed praying for the other side to score lol.
