Arsenal London, Mar. 31 (ANI): Jack Wilshere will risk falling out with manager Arsene Wenger because he plans to play for England in the Euro Under-21 Championships.

The Arsenal midfielder, wanted by Three Lions coach Stuart Pearce this summer, said: “At the moment I feel I can keep going. I’ve played 43 games this season but I feel better than ever.”

The Sun further quoted him as saying: “I want to play in the Under-21 tournament. It is now up to Stuart Pearce, Fabio Capello and my Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger. They will all talk about it and see what is best for me.”

Gunners boss Wenger does not want Wilshere to play in Denmark and will point to the string of injuries suffered by Theo Walcott in the summer of 2009. (ANI)
