Jack Wilshere has reportedly been told by friends to stay at Arsenal amid "underwhelming" interest by other clubs.
The 26-year-old has been at loggerheads with the Gunners regarding contract talks, which would see the player take a pay cut on his basic wages.
Everton, West Ham United, Leicester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with Wilshere, but according to The Sun, the midfielder has been advised to remain at the Emirates Stadium.
The newspaper quotes a source as saying: "The interest in Jack so far is underwhelming and friends are telling him that he should stay at Arsenal.
"He might have to take a pay cut but the bottom line is he is wanted by Arsenal and they're a better bet than the clubs that are after him at the moment. At least, he can still play in the Europa League.
"Everton, West Ham, Leicester and Wolves aren't Arsenal. Wolves, however, is an interesting one for him because they actually are going to be spending a fair bit of money and is an exciting project."
Wilshere has spent the entirety of his professional career at Arsenal, save for loan spells at Bolton Wanderers and Bournemouth.
