Manchester City are set to launch a sensational bid for Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere, according to The Daily Star Sunday. The Citizens are set to strengthen their home grown players in the squad with rumours of interest in Everton's Ross Barkley and West Ham's Aaron Cresswell as well.
If Wilshere joined City, he would become the sixth player to sign for them from Arsenal in recent years following the signings of Gael Clichy, Bacary Sagna, Samir Nasri, Emmanuel Adebayor and Kolo Toure.
Wilshere came up through Arsenal's youth academy. He made his first team debut in 2008, becoming Arsenal's youngest ever league debutant at the age of 16 years, 256 days. He has since made 95 appearances for his club and has 26 International caps for England.
