ARSENAL are now surprise favourites to sign Jack Wilshere.
That’s according to bookmakers Betfair, who’ve slashed the odds of a north London homecoming for the talented midfielder.

Wilshere was previously a double-figure 14/1 to return to the Emirates Stadium, but the Gunners now lead the market at 9/5.
The former England playmaker is currently a free agent following his departure from West Ham by mutual consent in October.
Steven Gerrard’s Scottish Premiership leaders were in pole-position to profit.
But support for Rangers has waned in recent days with the club drifting substantially in the betting from odds-on 4/9 to 7/2.
Dean Smith’s Aston Villa are next in line at 5/1, while Any MLS Club is 9/1 with relegation-threatened Fulham at 10s.
Sunday evening’s 2-1 defeat to Wolves resigned Arsenal to their worst start to a season since 1981.
Mikel Arteta’s side are 14th in the Premier League table and have suffered five losses in 10 top-flight outings.
The Gunners have been accused of lacking creativity going forward and it shows in their goal tally.
They’ve found the net 10 times this season and have registered the same number of attempts as Sheffield United and West Brom (95).
To remedy this, bookmakers Betfair think they’ll move for free agent Wilshere.
The playmaker, whose domestic honours include two FA Cup trophies and the Community Shield, showed he was keeping sharp in a recent Instagram post.
He captioned the pictures: “Working hard in Dubai at the amazing Nad Al Sheba Sports Complex with the same hunger as always.”

He’s also made no secret of his desire to return to Arsenal.
Wilshere said it would be a ‘dream’ to represent the Gunners again but added that there was ‘probably no chance of it happening’.
He said: “Listen, you never know. I’m an Arsenal man. There’s nothing, I’ve not spoken to anyone or anything but that would be the dream.
“I’m not stupid to know that there’s probably no chance of it happening but I’m an Arsenal man, I love the club and want to see the club do well.”
Boss Arteta was equally sceptical of a deal being struck.
He told reporters: “We haven’t analysed that situation.
“As a player, a teammate, a person, I rate him really highly but at the moment we haven’t looked at that.”
