Roma have made a late bid to sign Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere on loan, according to Sky sources.Wilshere appeared to have choice between Crystal Palace and Bournemouth as his destination on a season-long loan.It is understood Wilshere and his representatives met Palace boss Alan Pardew on Tuesday afternoon and Cherries manager Eddie Howe in the
evening.Both those meetings were in London and Wilshere told Pardew and Howe he would inform the respective clubs of his decision on Wednesday morning.But Italian giants Roma have now joined the race – making a “significant effort”, according to Sky sources – to sign the England man, with Wilshere now having the option of a glamorous move abroad to consider too.
The 24-year-old agreed with the Gunners last week that he would go out to get regular games following a series of injuries. Wilshere made just one Premier League start last season.
Meanwhile, AC Milan have enquired about signing Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas – but he is staying at Stamford Bridge, Sky sources understand.
The Spain international midfielder has played only 12 minutes of Chelsea’s opening three Premier League games this season, coming on as a 78th-minute substitute in the opening day victory over London rivals West Ham.
Reports in the national press subsequently said Fabregas was of interest to huge clubs such as Real Madrid, Juventus, and former club Barcelona.
