Wilshere is in the process of recovering his best form and match fitness, having returned to action in November after a 15-month absence due to injury.
The 20-year-old is positive that he has a bright future at the club under Arsene Wenger, despite the Frenchman being called into question over the Gunners' going seven years without a trophy and losing their top stars on a regular basis.
"I am talking to the club and probably will be committing my future in the next couple of weeks," Wilshere said.
"There is no question he [Wenger] is the right man. The players have to look at themselves."
Wenger's side are currently 18 points off the top of the Premiers League standings, but have qualified for the knockout section of the UEFA Champions League.
Wilshere is adamant that the north London giants are still in with a shot at winning some silverware.
"I know the team are going through a bad stage at the moment, but that is like any team," he said.
"We can still realistically win everything we are in. I know we are a long way behind in the Premier League, but football changes quickly.
"If we win three games and another team loses a couple and draws one, we are back in it. It is not in our hands, so we need a bit of luck.
"We used to win trophies in the past so there is no reason why we cannot."
