Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere admits he's still to hear from management about a new deal.

Wilshere's current contract expires in June.

He told the London Evening Standard: “There's no update. We're in the same position we were in two weeks ago.

“There's not really a date in the diary for talks. I've only read what he's said in the media. At the moment, I've just played my first game in the Premier League. I'm concentrating on staying fit and staying in its team. That will look after itself and when it's the right time, I'm sure the boss will pull me so we can have a chat.

“I got my first Premier League start tonight and I'm buzzing. I'm happy about that. I've said before that the next step for me is to get into this Premier League team and try to stay in this team.

“There's another game on Saturday [against Newcastle], we'll see what the boss does then. At the moment that's all I'm focused on. This time of the year is probably the most important time of the season.

“The games come thick and fast and that's a good thing because we dropped points tonight but have the chance to get three points on Saturday. We need to recover now and be ready for that."
