Jack Wilshere KO’d as injury curse returns

Jack Wilshere will miss key games for Arsenal and England after being ruled out for “a few weeks” with an ankle injury, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has said.

The 23-year-old England midfielder’s career has been punctuated by injury and now he has suffered another – a hairline crack of his left fibula.

Wilshere will miss Sunday’s Premier League season opener with West Ham and is also likely out of England’s Euro 2016 qualifying Group E fixtures with San Marino and Switzerland next month.
