Arsene Wenger has urged Jack Wilshere to hurry up and sign a new Arsenal contract.

The club have reportedly offered Wilshere a new deal for less money, but it involves more add-ons and bonuses to encourage better performances from the midfielder.

The 26-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and Wenger wants him to sign the new deal as soon as possible.

‘That decision doesn’t depend only on me, but I want him to sign very quickly,’ Wenger said.

‘He is still yet to make a decision and find a pen somewhere. I am happy to give him one.’

Wilshere has played 25 times this season, managing two goals and three assists throughout the campaign so far.

He’s made a total of 183 appearances for the club since making his debut in 2008, with his 184th coming against Osterunds in the Europa League on February 22.
