The former England international left the Emirates after the expiry of his contract, opening up a free transfer to West Ham, with whom he’s signed a three-year deal.
Wilshere has had injury problems in the past but was able to get plenty of game time for Arsenal last season. The club did try and keep him, but Wilshere did not think he would get enough game time under new boss Unai Emery.
Wilshere makes the move to West Ham after spending the majority of his career at Arsenal, minus loan spells at Bolton Wanderers and AFC Bournemouth.
Wilshere had been linked with a move to other Premier League sides, and also a move abroad to Italy, where there has been much interest in the midfielder.
Wilshere has 34 England caps and has scored two goals for his country, both against Slovenia in qualification for Euro 2016.
