The race for Declan Rice this summer is reaching a decisive moment as clubs chasing his signature have to decide if they're all in or out. Arsenal are one of the sides following a move for the midfielder as they look to make the West Ham captain their marquee signing for a midfield revamp.
football.london understands that the 24-year-old is still a top priority target for the coming weeks ahead, despite having two bids rejected by the Hammers so far. The opening offer was a total package worth £80million, with the second reaching £90million, but included all add-ons being achieved.
With their inability to strike a deal early on, it has given enough time for Manchester City to join the battle for the England international. Reports have claimed that a bid has been tabled by the Premier League champions, but football.london understands that to be premature.
