Arsenal and Liverpool have been dealt a blow in their pursuit of Declan Rice after West Ham increased their valuation of the England international.
Rice, 24, has one year left on his contract and could leave the London Stadium this summer. Several Premier League clubs are interested in his signature, including Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool.
However, according to the Telegraph, Rice's price could be inflated depending on Jude Bellingham and how much Real Madrid are willing to pay for the 19-year-old. Los Blancos are the firm favourites to sign Bellingham in the summer, although Manchester City are not giving up the fight.
