Bournemouth unlikely to sign Arsenal midfielder

Bournemouth are unlikely to complete a permanent transfer for midfielder Jack Wilshere, if club manager Eddie Howe's most recent comments are anything to go by. The Cherries have yet to have opened talks with Arsenal regarding a potential move for the player.

Wilshere is currently at Bournemouth on a season long loan and has impressed since his arrival; whilst also avoiding injury since making the temporary transfer away from the Emirates.

Even though the midfielder is said to be very happy on the south coast, the player has bigger ambitions and is known to be interested in a move to Man City; who are rumoured to be long term admirers of Wilshere's talents.

The player is concerned about the progress at Arsenal under manager Arsene Wenger and is worried that he will still not receive as much first team football as he desires once he returns to the club at the end of the season.

Wilshere has over one year remaining on his deal at the Gunners.
