Manchester
City are planning to sign Arsenal struggling midfielder Jack Wilshere,
according to reports.
The
Daily Mail claimed that the Citizens are planning to strengthen their side
for next season in the summer.
City
are currently on third spot and are nine points away from league leaders
Chelsea who also have a game in hand.
Wilshere
has missed the most of the season with injury and has now returned finally. He
has featured for the under 21 side recently.
With
Arsenal also reportedly interested in City’s James Milner, boss Arsene Wenger
might plan to sell Wilshere.

Meanwhile,
Manchester City are also keeping tabs on Liverpool vice-captain Jordan
Henderson.
City
manager Manuel Pellegrini is keen to land Henderson after his impressive
displays in Premier League.
Henderson
is currently enjoying the captain’s arm band as Steven Gerrard is suspended.
The
Englishman has taken control of Liverpool midfield in the absence of veteran
Steven Gerrard.
However,
Brendan Rodgers is in no mood to sell his star player this summer but the Citizens are confident that a big offer will not block their move.
On
the other hand, Samir Nasri could leave Etihad Stadium in the summer window
after spending a frustrating season.
