West Ham are interested in Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere but have been told that they must stump up £20million to get him, according to a report from David Woods of The Star.
The Hammers have also been told that the Gunners will want to include a buy-back clause in the contract of the midfielder, although the fee at which Arsenal would be able to repurchase him at has not been disclosed.
Wilshere spent last season on loan at Bournemouth in a bid to get a full season of football under his belt. However, after a bright start, the midfielder’s season ended slightly prematurely after he suffered a leg injury in a game against Tottenham in April.
Arsene Wenger has reportedly decided to move on from Wilshere and is willing to let him leave, but the Gunners will not accept a cut-price bid from any club.
They’ve already rejected a bid of around £6million from Sampdoria as they think he’s worth much, much more than that.
It seems like Slaven Bilic is interested in Wilshere, but time will tell if the reported asking price is too rich for West Ham’s blood.
