Arsenal have submitted a third bid of up to £105million for Declan Rice.
The Gunners are determined to win the race for his signature after West Ham turned down Manchester City's opening £90m offer on Tuesday. Mikel Arteta is keen to bolster his midfield ahead of their return to the Champions League and Rice is firmly at the top of their summer shopping list.
Rice has one year left on his contract at West Ham and has made it clear his preferred destination is the Emirates Stadium. However, the Hammers wanted more than £100million for the England international.
