Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini is delighted to have the England international on board and is hoping to see him overcome ongoing injury problems
Jack Wilshere is considered to be a £100 million ($127m) player by Manuel Pellegrini, but the West Ham boss acknowledges that a “risk” has been taken on the injury-prone former Arsenal star.
A scramble for the England international’s signature was sparked over the summer as he departed Emirates Stadium as a free agent.
In the end, a short trip was made across London as the 26-year-old midfielder traded the Gunners for the Hammers.
