'He had a little surgery on his ankle because it was irritating him a bit but it's a very minor procedure so he will be out for a few days,' Wenger said.


'It was planned to be done at the end of the season and because he had an irritation with it we decided to do it now.'

Wilshere has not played for the Gunners since picking up the injury in a tackle with Manchester United's Paddy McNair in November.

The England international returned to the squad last week, but was an unused sub as Arsenal beat Crystal Palace 2-1 at Selhurst Park.
