Arsenal must do all they can to sign West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice this summer.
To make a good team a Premier League title-winning team, you need level-raising signings. Manchester City brought in Kyle Walker and Ederson in the summer of 2017, Liverpool signed Fabinho and Alisson 12 months later and the task for Arsenal this summer is to recruit players of that ilk so they can kick on next season and finally end their 19-year wait for a league title.
Rice fits the bill for the Gunners and football.london understands that the 24-year-old is Mikel Arteta's priority target ahead of the summer transfer window. Recent reports have suggested that the Hammers are demanding in excess of £100million for their captain whilst Arteta's side are said to be preparing an opening offer of £92million, £3million less than the package put together by Bayern Munich.
