Wilshere's deal expires in the summer, meaning he can leave on a free transfer in July, and the Sun says Real Betis "believe they are close to pulling off a coup by convincing him to move to Spain."

It reports that Betis "have made contact with Wilshere, with the player open to moving."

And it adds that the high-fliers "could push for a cut-price deal in January if talks between Wilshere and Arsenal either don't happen or reach a stalemate."
