Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe says Jack Wilshere is not taking part in full training to try and keep him fit.
The 24-year-old, on loan from Arsenal, played 45 minutes of Saturday's testimonial match against AC Milan.
But Howe admits he has had to manage the workload of the England midfielder, who only played three matches for the Gunners in the 2015-16 campaign after fracturing his leg last August.
"He has not completed all of the training," Howe told BBC Radio Solent.
"We have had to manage his training time on the pitch to make sure we get the balance right between getting him fitter and making sure he does not break down.
