Arsenal lose top talent-spotter: Scout who found Wilshere quits



By Sportsmail Reporter

Spotted: Jack Wilshere

The man credited with bringing Jack Wilshere to Arsenal has left the club.

Sean O'Connor, Arsenal's chief academy scout, has walked away apparently citing 'in-house politics' for his decision.

The top talent-spotter had been at the club for more than 10 years, mainly in a part-time role, and is believed to be negotiating a release settlement.
