Wilshere, who is currently a free agent, played under Howe at Bournemouth and would welcome linking up with him again.

Speaking to talkSPORT, Wilshere said of joining Toon with Howe at the helm: “I would love to. I'm not sure if he would take me though.

“I worked with him before and I still speak with him so I could ask the question.

“I think he'd be great with the players Newcastle have got. With the transition they're in, he could take them to the next level."
