Alan Brazil reckons out of contract Jack Wilshere should consider joining Celtic on a pay-as-you-play deal as he struggles to find a club.
Wilshere was most recently training with Italian Serie B side Como, since leaving Bournemouth last year.
The move to Italy couldn't be completed as the midfielder is a non EU player.
The 29-year-old was heavily linked with a move to Rangers, having played with Steven Gerrard for England.
However, Brazil believes it's on the other side of Glasgow that Wilshere can get his career back on track as he mooted a potential pay-as-you-play deal due to the midfielder's fitness issues.
The once future star has been hit by injuries throughout his career, only once managing to make more than 30 league appearances.
He said on his talkSPORT morning show: "By the way, Scottish football's not slow you know.
"It's lively up there, as one or two people have found out when they've gone up there.
"But I think the Celtic fans would take to him if he found his form, with his dribbling skills and taking the ball and running at defenders.
"I think they'd give him a chance, they really would."
