JACK Wilshere is set to complete a move to join Cherries on a free transfer, the Daily Echo understands.
The 29-year-old is expected to sign a short-term deal until the end of the season – and be registered in time for tomorrow’s away clash at Derby (6pm).
Wilshere has been a free agent since cancelling his contract at West Ham in October.
The Daily Echo exclusively revealed the England international had been training with the club last month.
Latest: Tindall says returning Wilshere has 'unfinished business' at Cherries
Former Gunners ace Wilshere played 27 times for Cherries in the Premier League during the 2016-17 campaign, having joined on a season-long loan.
He helped Eddie Howe’s men record their highest ever league finish, ending the season ninth in the top flight.
Speaking to the Daily Echo last week, Tindall said: “I have stayed in touch with Jack.
“He was great to work with, he’s a great lad and I think when he was here at the football club, he really took the club and everyone to heart.
“He really enjoyed his experience and time here. We’ve got a good relationship and when you’ve got an opportunity to bring someone in to train with the group, with the quality of Jack, then you’re not going to turn it down.”
