Arsenal midfielder wishes Kieran Gibbs well on his departure from Arsenal.
Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere has congratulated Kieran Gibbs on his transfer to West Bromwich Albion.
The left-back sealed a £7 million switch to the Baggies yesterday morning, where he hopes to get his career back on track.
Gibbs has previously represented England but is not currently in manager Gareth Southgate’s plans.
Wilshere is an Arsenal player with questions over his own future, and he appears sad to see his pal depart.
Commenting on Instagram, he paid tribute to Gibbs and wished him well.
Gibbs had slipped down to third choice in the Arsenal pecking order at left-back behind Nacho Monreal and new signing Sead Kolasinac.
This is a chance for the left-back to start playing regularly again and could solve what has been a problem position for West Brom over the past year.
Wilshere could himself have a big decision to make whether he follows Gibbs out of the exit door.
