Ex-Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has backed his former teammate Jack Wilshere to succeed in his journey into coaching and football management. Wilshere, 30, called a day on his professional playing career earlier this year and was appointed the head coach of the Arsenal under-18s.
The midfielder had a promising future at the Emirates Stadium with one of his best performances coming against Barcelona in the Champions League. At just 19-years-old, Wilshere ran the midfield and was named Player of the Match against the likes of Xavi, Andreas Iniesta and Sergio Busquets.
Injuries ravaged his career from then on, meaning he struggled to hit the potential that he otherwise had shown to have. After retiring in the summer, he took a role as the under-18s head coach and said on the challenge: "It's a huge honour to have this role, it's no secret that I love this club. I love what we stand for and you know a big part of my life was spent in this academy, some of the best days of my life.
