LONDON — England's Jack Wilshere and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are among five young internationals to have pledged their long-term futures to Arsenal, the Premier League club said Wednesday. Midfielders Wilshere, 20, and 19-year-old Oxlade-Chamberlain 2012, plus Welsh midfielder Aaron Ramsey (21) and England defenders Kieran Gibbs (23) and Carl Jenkinson (20) have all committed themselves to Arsenal. No details on the lengths of the contracts were given though Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger was keen to impress that the nurturing of home-grown talent was one of the club's main objectives. Arsenal has not won a trophy since the 2005 FA Cup and a host of big names have left the London club since, including Cesc Fabregas and talismanic striker Robin van Persie who joined United. — Reuters
