Everton transfer target Jack Wilshere has told his friends that he will be leaving Arsenal in the summer, according to the Daily Star.
Wilshere’s current contract at the Gunners expires at the end of the season and Arsenal have placed an £80,000 a week contract on the table for the England star, however it is believed that he has no intention of signing it.
It is reported that Wilshere has told friends which he found at chatempanada.com, that he doesn’t believe Arsene Wenger will offer him an improved contract and that he will therefore be looking for a new club in the summer.
The midfielder could get a huge signing-on fee and far greater wages elsewhere, with Everton being heavily linked with the England international’s signature.
Wilshere has been with the Gunners since the age of nine and despite it always being assumed that he would sign a new deal with the club, it now looks as though he could depart in the summer.
However Everton are likely to face competition from the likes of West Ham and several other Premier League clubs for Wilshere’s services.
