Arsenal chairman Jeff Mostyn says that it is "possible" that Jack Wilshere could remain at Bournemouth beyond his loan deal.

Bournemouth chairman Jeff Mostyn has claimed that "anything is possible" with regards to Jack Wilshere's long-term stay at the Vitality Stadium.

The midfielder signed for the Cherries in the summer transfer window on a season-long loan deal from Arsenal.

A string of injury problems has hampered Wilshere's progress at the Emirates in recent years, and he was facing a fight to get into Arsene Wenger's starting XI this season.

Wilshere's future became a talking point during Mostyn's appearance at Soccerex Global Convention in Manchester this week.

The chairman refused to rule out the prospect of the 24-year-old remaining at Bournemouth beyond the end of the season, but claimed that the final decision would be up to the player himself.

"I think anything is possible," The Express quotes Mostyn as saying. "The best we can do is integrate Jack into the team and help him fulfil what he wants. Whether or not we will go beyond a season, I think everything is possible.

"You have to be realistic and Jack may well consider his home to be back at Arsenal. If that was the case then we couldn't disagree with his decision, and the decision will be his, but if there is a possibility and Eddie Howe decides that he's somebody he wants to keep it will be up to him.

"He will have to persuade [owner] Maxim Demin to unload a huge treasure chest in order to keep him. That would be the $64m question - it may even be the £64m transfer fee!"

Wilshere progressed through Arsenal's youth system, eventually making his senior debut in 2008.
