Arsenal's move for Declan Rice is progressing as a huge club-record transfer is currently being discussed with fellow London club West Ham. The saga has had plenty of twists and turns, but at this stage it appears to be moving completely in the direction of a switch to the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners submitted two opening bids - worth £80million and £90million respectively - however both deals were rejected by the Hammers. While the race was still open, Manchester City joined the race, making their move with an offer that was also turned away by the Irons.
The overall package was moving closer to the £100million mark, but it would take one of the two sides to move first to be able to reach that. It was Arsenal that took that leap, making a club-record bid earlier this week, worth £100million in guaranteed fees with £5million in add-ons.
