West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini says they're continuing to bank on Jack Wilshere making an impact.

Wilshere is set to return from injury for West Ham after an ankle problem.

"We will see tomorrow how he feels. He's played already one game for the under-23s. We will talk with him, but it will be soon," said Pellegrini, who confirmed Wilshere had been training "without problem" as he steps up his recovery.

"This week or next week. He will play some games before the end of the season."

The West Ham boss added: "I think he is a midfielder that we need because in that position we have so many times all of those injuries. The return for Jack to the team will be a good injection for the team."
