Graeme Souness has warned Arsenal that even if they manage to sign Declan Rice, the Gunners won't be getting a "top, top midfielder."
West Ham captain Rice has been the subject of two transfer bids from Arsenal, the second being worth a total of £90million. Aiming to get the maximum amount for their midfield general, West Ham have rejected both offers, despite chairman David Sullivan recently confirming that Rice, 24, will be allowed to leave for the right price this summer.
The Gunners have already shown that they're willing to break their own transfer record to win the race for the England international, who's also a target for Manchester United and local rivals City. Souness, though, isn't convinced that Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta should be so intent on signing him.
