Jack Wilshere has been pictured back in action with Arsenal kit on as the club's former midfielder honed his fitness with the Gunners.
Mikel Arteta welcomed his former team-mate back with open arms but has insisted there is no chance Wilshere will rejoin the club and is just making use of the facilities.
Wilshere was seen running on the Colney training pitches on Thursday morning and the Arsenal boss was again asked if the Englishman would definitely not be offered a contract.
The midfielder is currently without a club and is waiting for the right opportunity
He told the club's website: 'What we should believe is that we want to help him to prepare for his next stage, physically, mentally, he wants to do his coaching badges again and we are prepared to fulfill all the needs that he wants.
