WILSHERE OUT FOR SIX WEEKS

West Ham United midfielder Jack Wilshere is out for up to six weeks following minor ankle surgery...

Wilshere only joined his new club back in July, as his contract with boyhood club Arsenal ran out.

The 26-year-old managed to start the first three games of the season, but then picked upp the injury against Wolves and missed the win against Everton on Sunday.

"We envisage he will only need a relatively short period of rest and will then start his rehabilitation," head of medical Richard Collinge revealed.

Collinge, however, was pleased with the surgery and believed it all went to plan to give Wilshere the quickest possible recovery time.

"Jack is focused and determined to get back training and playing as soon as possible," Collinge added.

Wilshere has had a terrible history with injuries and affected his development from his young years.
