According to a report from Football.London, Jack Wilshere could be a curveball option to start for West Ham against Wolves in two weeks time.

The Hammers are in real trouble. And David Moyes has a big task on his hands if he is to guide his side away from trouble during the nine remaining Premier League fixtures.

West Ham currently sit in 16th spot in the table, level on points with 18th placed Bournemouth. They are also only two points clear of 19th placed Aston Villa, having played a game more than Dean Smith’s side.

So their clash with Wolves on June 20th is a vitally important one.

David Moyes surely has a rough idea of what his starting XI will be at the London Stadium against Nuno Espirito Santo’s side.

But Football.London have claimed that Jack Wilshere could potentially start the game.

And that really would be a shock for Hammers fans.

The 28-year-old has been incredibly disappointing for West Ham since moving to the London Stadium on a free transfer in the summer of 2018.

The former Arsenal man has made just 16 appearances for the Hammers in 22 months, racking up just one goal and one assist in the process (Transfermarkt).

And he has made just eight appearances for the east London outfit this season (Transfermarkt).

Wilshere is back fit now, however. And who knows? Perhaps he does still have something to offer West Ham.

Starting him against Wolves, however, would be a huge call from Moyes.
