Published on: 23 October 2017

Jack Wilshere has revealed he is completing his coaching badges.

The Arsenal midfielder, who has recently returned to the first-team fold, told the club's website that he is doing his coaching badges.

"Last year when I was at Bournemouth, because they're not in Europe and didn't have a midweek game, it seemed like an opportunity [to start my badges]," he told the Arsenal podcast.

"A few of the lads were talking about doing their Level Two [coaching badge] and I thought, I'm going to jump on it.

"I really enjoyed it, while I'm fit and playing and healthy I might not need it, but even if I've got another ten years left in me I don't want to be at the end of my career and maybe have a year out and be thinking, what do I want to do…and then have to go through Level Two, UEFA B, UEFA A.

"I'm doing my UEFA B at the minute. Luckily I've got great facilities here at Arsenal, great players and the PFA and the FA have been great and really helpful. I'm going to complete that and then see what I want to do."
