Arsenal are ready to splash £75 million on a record signing this summer – before they've agreed a deal for priority target Declan Rice.
The Gunners' current record signing is Nicolas Pepe, who spent last season on loan in Ligue 1 with Nice. The Ivorian set the club back £72m in the summer of 2019 when he arrived from Lille – but his signature was the start of a sea change of how Arsenal did business.
