Jack Wilshere is reportedly taking the tube to east London.
Wilshere is close to joining West Ham United on a free transfer after completing a medical Thursday, according to the Guardian's Jacob Steinberg.
He is expected to sign a three-year contract.
Wilshere ended his 17-year association with Arsenal last month after learning his role in the squad would be diminished. He had agreed to take a pay cut to continue his career at the Emirates but decided to let his contract run out once he became aware of new manager Unai Emery's plans.

The 26-year-old said he was open to a new adventure abroad, a come-and-get-me plea that reportedly invited interest from Turkish outfit Fenerbahce.
But West Ham has apparently offered the Stevenage native an opportunity to remain both in London and the Premier League.
Wilshere would become the Hammers' fourth signing of the close season following the arrivals of Lukasz Fabianski, Ryan Fredericks, and Issa Diop.
Crystal Palace, Wolves, and Everton have also been linked with the midfielder.
