Jack Wilshere’s Arsenal future is in serious jeopardy right now, as the English star may very leave the club of his dreams.

According to recent reports, English midfielder Jack Wilshere haven’t negotiated with Arsenal about his contract. All reports including The Mirror, ESPN and The Sun suggests that Wilshere might be moving towards Juventus.

Wilshere is free to talk to, and sign a pre-contract offer with, foreign clubs as his deal expires in the summer, and there have been several firm approaches from top continental sides.

Jack Wilshere have been asked to endure a pay cut if he wants to stay at Arsenal. Wilshere is a well known midfielder today, and nobody wants to endure a pay cut.

AC Milan was already in the line to sign the England National, but Italian champion Juventus has reportedly also joined the fray.

The 25 year old midfielder have been a Gunner since the start of his career and was considered as a hot prospect of English football. But his forms deteriorated and he rarely got his place in the Arsenal squad, being sent to Bolton Wanderers and Bournemouth on loan.

A fit and in form Wilshere is obviously a valuable asset for any club who signs him, but the lack of form and sudden sprouts of injury is limiting his chances to create his legacy. Even his chances of playing in the World Cup is thin right now, as England team has better options.

But now we hear that Barcelona are also snooping around, as the Catalan club may very well put in a bid for the Englishman. Wilshere’s best performance in an Arsenal shirt came in Arsenal’s famous win over Barcelona in 2011, as the then teenager was dubbed the future of world football.

Let’s see what happens!
