Arsene Wenger: Jack Wilshere has a future at Arsenal despite loan move

"I think Jack Wilshere is a world class player. He has a great footballing brain."

Arsene Wenger insists "world class" Jack Wilshere's Arsenal future is not under threat despite sanctioning the England international's loan move to Bournemouth.

Wilshere, 24, has struggled with injuries in the past three years and last played 90 minutes for Arsenal almost two years ago - a 2-1 League Cup defeat to Southampton on September 23, 2014.
