Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger appears ready to risk losing Theo Walcott for nothing next summer after declaring the England star will not be sold in the January transfer window.
Jack Wilshere, Walcott's team-mate for both club and country, does not want to see another big name player quit the Emirates Stadium. "He is an English lad and great to have around the dressing room," the midfielder said. "But that is up to him, the boss and the board. They are going to do whatever they are going to do. I hope he signs. "We all know what Theo brings to the team. He has got pace, he can go behind and his movement and timing of the runs is probably the best around. "He play anywhere - up front, right, left, central. "He wants to play down the middle, so I think he will get his chance - he will just have to be patient."
