Arsenal sent clear £100m Declan Rice transfer message as Man City pull out of race

The Declan Rice transfer saga has dominated the first few weeks of the summer window.

Arsenal have been actively pursuing a deal for the England international since West Ham United won the UEFA Europa Conference League, beating Fiorentina 2-1, earlier this month. Since then, the Gunners have seen two bids rejected by David Moyes' side, who were holding out for a nine-figure offer.

Manchester City then officially joined the race on Monday evening, lodging a bid of their own, which was also turned down by the east Londoners. Arsenal responded last night by submitting a club record offer worth £100million plus an additional £5million in add-ons, football.london understands.
