Arsene Wenger has insisted that nothing has changed from Arsenal’s side regarding Jack Wilshere’s contract and the club still want him to continue at the Emirates.
Wilshere’s contract is set to expire at the end of the season and his representatives have been locked in talks with the Gunners over a new deal.
However, the negotiations have not moved along smoothly and there are suggestions that Arsenal have offered a highly incentivised contact to the midfielder with a lower basic wage compared to his current deal.
Wilshere is yet to put pen to paper on the deal and is attracting interest from elsewhere.
Wenger stressed that from the club’s side nothing has changed and the Arsenal boss insisted that he wants Wilshere to continue be part of the club and play a role in their future.
