Wilshere targeting November return

Jack Wilshere is targeting a return to action for West Ham United at the end of November after his comeback from injury was haltered by another delay, the Daily Mail reports.

Wilshere underwent minor ankle surgery last month and was expected to be back in the first-team fold by now.

However it looks increasingly unlikely that Wilshere will play any part in his side’s upcoming Premier League fixtures against Burnley and Huddersfield Town.

Wilshere is continuing his rehabilitation at West Ham’s Rush Green HQ and boss Manuel Pellegrini is extremely cautious about bringing the England international back into contention before he his fully fit.

Wilshere has a poor injury record, in particular with his ankles, leaving West Ham medical staff not keen to rush his progression.

It now looks likely that the earliest Wilshere could return to the fold for the Hammers would be when they face Manchester City on November 24.
