Jack Wilshere will reportedly join West Ham United.
It has been reported that Wilshere, who left Arsenal at the end of last month after his contract with the North London outfit ran out, will undergo exhaustive medical tests at London Stadium today.

The report has also claimed that it is new West Ham manager Manuel Pellegrini – formerly of Real Madrid and Manchester City – who has pushed through with the signing of the England international, as he is a fan of the midfielder.
“The Hammers had been lukewarm on the 26-year-old prior to the arrival of Manuel Pellegrini,” states the report in Goal.com.
“Pellegrini, however, is a fan of Wilshere and the club has in turn stepped up their efforts to land him.”
According to The Sun, West Ham will pay Wilshere a weekly salary of £100,000 and will hand the 26-year-old a three-year contract.
Good signing for Arsenal?
Wilshere is a very good midfielder who knows the Premier League inside out, and the England international would be a smart signing for West Ham.
The main problem with the Englishman is his injury record, although the midfielder did well last season.
The 26-year-old made 12 starts and eight substitute appearances in the Premier League for Arsenal last season, scoring one goal and providing three assists in the process.
Wilshere scored one goal and provided two assists in 12 Europa League starts for the Gunners during the 2017-18 campaign.
