Jack Wilshere is seeking talks with Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger over his future.
The 18-year-old wants the chance to push his claims to be part of Fabio Capello's new England plans with regular football at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsene Wenger has still to fully kill off Barcelona's interest in Cesc Fabregas and that could delay any decision on Wilshere.
The player has no intention of leaving the Emirates but knows he needs a full season of regular football under his belt to further his international claims.
A host of Premier League clubs want the central midfielder on loan with Owen Coyle leading the chase at the Reebok Stadium.
