Newcastle now favourites to land Arsenal star Wilshere

Jack Wilshere could be about to sign for Newcastle United, according to our football traders.

The Arsenal man has struggled to break into Arsene Wenger’s first-team plans and continues to be linked with a move away from the Emirates.

And our traders have acted accordingly, now make Newcastle 7/4 favourites for his signature.

A takeover of the St James’ Park outfit is reportedly close with Rafa Benitez promised funds to spend in January.

Crystal Palace are 3/1 shots to be Wilshere’s next port of call, while 10/3 says David Moyes brings the England midfielder to West Ham United.

Ladbrokes’ spokesperson Alex Apati said: “Contract talks are still up in the air at the Emirates between Arsenal and Wilshere and the odds are now suggesting plenty of clubs will be looking to strike a deal – with Newcastle leading the way.”

If Wilshere is to make the England World Cup squad this summer, he needs to be playing regularly.
