Jack Wilshere is using an ultrasound device in an attempt to aid his recovery from injury. The Arsenal midfielder has not played since picking up a stress fracture on his right ankle during pre-season.

The 20-year-old posted a picture on Twitter of his ankle attached to the Exogen Ultrasound Bone Healing System, which is designed to help fractures. An update on his progress is expected next week.
