Declan Rice 'sets deadline' to complete Arsenal transfer as West Ham stand firm on fee

Declan Rice expects to be an Arsenal player by the end of the month with the Gunners and West Ham still thrashing out a fee.

The England midfielder has long been expected to move on this summer after several impressive years with the Hammers and the north Londoners currently lead the race for his signature. Rice finished the season by landing a European trophy with West Ham in what could be the perfect swan song.

He's now headed off on holiday but anticipates being an Arsenal player by the time June ends, reports the Daily Mail. Personal terms are expected to be a formality with the 24-year-old set to sign a deal worth well over £200,000-a-week once the two clubs agree on a figure.
