Harry Redknapp suggests West Brom or Fulham should target Jack Wilshere

Harry Redknapp has told The Sun on Sunday (1/11; page 60) that he is shocked to see Jack Wilshere without a club, and insisted that he would be ideal for either West Bromwich Albion or Fulham.

Wilshere remains a free agent after leaving West Ham last month. His stay at the London Stadium failed to live up to expectations.

He turns 29 in January. So it is surely fair to say that his next move could represent his last chance to prove that he can get back to his best at the highest level.

Nevertheless, Redknapp claimed that he cannot believe that Wilshere remains without a club. He also suggested that the Baggies or Scott Parker’s side should be open to making a move.

“When you’ve been in football as long as me, there isn’t much left to shock – but seeing Jack Wilshere without a club certainly does,” he told The Sun on Sunday (1/11; page 60).

“Jack would be ideal for someone like Fulham or West Brom, and if you were paying him on appearances, there would be no risk,” he went on to add.

Signing Wilshere may be worth a gamble for the likes of West Brom or Fulham. Neither side has won a game in the league this term.

A pay-as-you-play deal therefore, could hand either club a boost. If he can get back to anything like his best, he could be a fantastic signing.

However, West Ham fans may argue that he was fit for some time before his departure. And yet, he was not in David Moyes’s plans.

So he certainly has a big point to prove with his next move. Redknapp clearly thinks that he can still do the business in the Premier League.
