Jack Wilshere has joined Bournemouth on loan for the 2016/17 season. A product of our academy, Jack has been with us since the age of nine. He became our youngest ever league player when making his debut against Blackburn Rovers in 2008, aged 16 years 256 days.

He’s also the youngest player to represent the club in European football, making his debut aged 16 years 329 days. Since then, the 24-year-old midfielder has made a total of 159 Arsenal appearances and has won 34 full England caps. We all wish Jack a successful season with the Cherries.

The deal is subject to the completion of regulatory processes.
