Football.London claimed that Jack Wilshere could be a shock candidate to start West Ham’s game against Wolves on June 20th. And some Hammers fans have taken to Twitter in reaction to the speculation.

The east London outfit haven’t played a competitive game since March 7th. But with project restart looming, David Moyes’ men will be back in action in just 11 days time.

And West Ham will return to Premier League action with a real battle on their hands.
The Hammers currently sit in 16th spot in the table, just two points clear of 19th placed Aston Villa, having played a game more than Dean Smith’s side.
They desperately need to get some points on the board as soon as possible. And a victory over Wolves will be absolutely vital to their hopes of avoiding the drop.

Moyes undoubtedly has a clear idea of what his starting XI will against Nuno Espirito Santo’s side. But Football.London claims that the Scot has somewhat of a central midfield selection conundrum. And it is suggested that Jack Wilshere could start the match.
The 28-year-old has played just 16 games for West Ham since moving to the London Stadium from Arsenal in the summer of 2018 (Transfermarkt).
He hasn’t really shown any evidence that he can make a big difference for the Hammers. And with just one year remaining on his current deal, Wilshere still has so much to prove at West Ham.
Some Hammers fans have taken to Twitter in reaction to the report claiming that the 34-capped England international could start for Moyes’s side against Wolves next week…

NO!! A sub at best. Why would he suddenly jump ahead of noble, soucek, rice or fornals. He won’t start!!!
