He limped off after appearing to injure his ankle or foot when trying to tackle striker Harry Kane about an hour into the 4-0 drubbing by Tottenham.

Wilshere appeared downbeat as he left the stadium and will see a specialist in London.

He was hoping to get through a season without injury at long last after a whole catalogue of problems at Arsenal over a number of years.

But a Bournemouth spokesman last night told SunSport it was “too early to tell” for how long Wilshere is likely to be out and he will be assessed by club medical staff tomorrow.

He said: “Jack left the stadium on crutches as a precaution. It is to keep any weight off the potentially injured area.

“And the protective boot is just to make sure everything is secured to prevent any further damage.

“He will rest up and will be properly assessed on Monday, when it will be decided whether he needs a scan or not.”
