Jack Wilshere has completed a season-long loan move to Bournemouth.

The Cherries agreed to pay Arsenal a fee in the region of £2million to secure the coveted midfielder, and will cover all of his £80,000 per week wage.

Roma, AC Milan and Crystal Palace were all in the chase to land the 24-year-old, with Palace prepared to stump up a loan fee but not all of the player's salary.
