Jack Wilshere has revealed he will be out for at least two months.

And the Arsenal midfielder, who has not played this season, fears he could be sidelined until December if there are further complications with his ankle problem.

Wilshere is certain to miss England's final and potentially decisive Euro 2012 qualifier in Montenegro next month.

His continued absence is also a massive blow for Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger whose team has suffered a nightmare start to the season.

Wilshere said: "I can confirm I will be out for around two or three months.

"Arsenal are not pushing me at all, to be fair.

"I spoke to the manager and he said for me to take my time and come back when I'm ready because there is no point in me coming back and then having another six weeks out.

"It's massively frustrating. It's even more frustrating as I had a successful season and felt I could really push on."

Wilshere is currently wearing a protective boot on his right ankle.

But despite his fears of being injured for another two or three months, Arsenal are still hoping he could be back by early October.

Wilshere played with the problem last term but broke down in the pre- season Emirates Cup game against New York Red Bulls.
