Jack Wilshere is expected to sign a new three-year deal with Arsenal worth in the region of £100,000-a-week.

The 26-year-old was left out of Gareth Southgate’s England squad for the World Cup but received a slightly improved offer from Arsenal which Wilshere is on the verge of accepting.

It is understood the contract remains performance incentivised but the midfielder now has to complete fewer minutes and appearances in order to trigger the maximum weekly payment.

Wilshere had been linked with several other clubs including Everton but Standard Sport understands the only concrete offer Wilshere had received and considered was from Juventus, who first registered their interest several years ago.

​Wilshere had been frustrated by a lack of progress in talks but conversations have remained positive and an agreement is expected to be completed in the coming days.

He began the season with former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger willing to listen to offers but made 38 appearances for the club, forcing his way back into the first-team picture initially in the Europa League but later domestically.

Wilshere was expected to earn a place in Southgate’s final 23-man squad for Russia but the England boss claimed he was disappointed by his form during the second half of the season and elected to take Fabian Delph instead.
