Budding coach talks role models, marathon running and the excellence of Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly

Plenty of players do coaching badges routinely while they are still playing with one eye on a possible future career path, but it was watching the Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, that lit the coaching spark. “Mikel was the one,” says Wilshere. “I’d never seen someone coach that way, I’d never seen his passion, I’d never seen how he would try to teach the players, both in meetings and on the pitch. I was invited back to train when I was between clubs, I saw it, I was on my Uefa A Licence at the time and it inspired me.”
