sign a new contract with the club.
Wilshere has been offered a new deal by the club, but it involves
taking a pay cut on his basic wage, which is currently around £100,000
per week.
The Gunners want him to sign an incentivised £80,000-a-week deal, that
would include a host of performance-related add-ons.
Wilshere's current deal expires at the end of the season, when the
England midfielder can walk away for free.
His reps have been pushing for a higher basic salary, but the club are
confident an agreement is close.
"I'm positive because I want Jack to stay. I do the maximum I can to
make him happy.
"With Jack it is now. With Aaron, if we lose two weeks or three weeks,
it doesn't matter much," Wenger told reporters.
