"This has been a good opportunity for me to rest and reflect on my life and what I want - I am not going to rush that decision," Wilshere said.

"The transfer window finishes early August, so we still have some time and with the World Cup still going on things happen after the World Cup and during.

"Everyone knows what Deadline Day is like, it's manic and teams start to panic so we will see. I am not putting a deadline on anything."
