Wilshere had been training with Como in Italy, but was unable to join the club at the start of the season as he did not have an EU passport at the time.

He said in an interview, per the Mirror: "I think there's a preconceived opinion of me, and it's the response I've gotten from some clubs: he's a great player, but he's going to get injured.

"I have not had any injuries since before confinement and the last one was not serious. I have continued training every day. When I was at Bournemouth, I was available to play every match. Give me a chance. Let me prove that I'm fit."

He added: "I have a 10-year-old son who is crazy about football, he loves it, and he watches the news on Sky Sports News.

"He understands football, but it is very difficult to tell him about it. It is difficult to explain to him what is going on.

"He always asks me if I already have a club or if someone loves me, and I say no. I think that's all I can tell him. I have to be honest with him.

"I asked him to let me know when it was enough, that I would stop training on my own and maybe try something else."
