Chronicle EditorLONDON. — Manchester City are set to ignore Arsene Wenger’s warning and launch a £30million bid for Jack Wilshere. Arsenal boss Wenger issued a ‘hands-off’ blast after it emerged last month that Wilshere was on outgoing champions City’s summer wish-list.
But Wenger’s stance hasn’t put off the Etihad club’s top brass, who are plotting a huge squad overhaul following a poor season with recruiting homegrown talent a top priority.
And City – who saw another midfield target, Jordan Henderson, sign a new Liverpool deal last week – are pressing ahead with their attempts to pull off another audacious raid on Arsenal by lining up the huge bid for Wilshere. City’s refusal to give up on England midfielder Wilshere is set to put him at the centre of a summer tug-of-war and leave him with a dilemma. — Mirror.
