AS Monaco midfielder Cesc Fabregas says former Arsenal teammate Jack Wilshere could've made it at Barcelona or Real Madrid.

Wilshere is now a free agent after terminating his contract with West Hmam.

Cesc told the Daily Mail: "Jack was such a good talent, one of the most talented players I've ever played with.

"He was just 16 when he first came to train with us and I was like 'wow this guy is good, strong, sharp'. It's a big shame what has happened to him, I feel sorry because he could have been a proper English legend of the game.

"We always talk about how British players would adapt to teams in Europe – I always believed that Jack was one of the few Brits who could have made it big time at Real Madrid or Barcelona.

"Same with Aaron Ramsey and Gareth Bale. These guys are so talented, without injuries they could have done much more."
