Arsene Wenger reassures Arsenal supporters that he will not rush Jack Wilshere back from injury.

Arsene Wenger has reassured Arsenal supporters that he will not rush Jack Wilshere back from injury.

Wilshere has not played for Arsenal in over a year after he suffered an ankle injury, and despite Wilshere nearing a return, Wenger has admitted that he will not rush the midfielder's comeback.

Wenger told reporters: "October will be an important month for Jack. I will promise you that I will be careful, but Jack works very hard.

"Every day he is in early, late going home, is focused and has built up a good basis for his body.

"After how quick he will be sharp again for competition, I don't know. We will have to wait for at least a month to see that."

The 20-year-old has scored three goals in 64 appearances for Arsenal.
