Arsenal are preparing to submit an improved offer to sign West Ham captain Declan Rice. The Gunners had their first bid for Rice rejected out of hand by the Hammers.
Arsenal made their first formal offer for the England international earlier today, but it is thought that West Ham were unhappy with the proposal. The north Londoners were hopeful of paying a base fee of £80million over six years with a further £10million potentially available in add-ons, football.london understands.
It is thought that West Ham would like more of the money up front, and that the Europa Conference League champions viewed the add on clauses as unrealistic. It now seems Arsenal are ready to return with a £100million bid for Rice, despite interest from other teams, according to The Daily Mail.
