Liam Gallagher has accused Declan Rice of 'lacking ambition' ahead of a potential transfer to Arsenal. The 24-year-old continues to be heavily linked with a big move this summer following his impressive performances for West Ham.
Despite the arrival of Jorginho in January, football.london understand that the Gunners identified Rice as a priority signing earlier this year. After seeing two bids rejected, the Gunners tabled a club-record offer of £100million, including £5million in add-ons, for the Hammers captain on Tuesday night.
Since then, Manchester City have decided to pull out of the race, leaving the door wide open for Mikel Arteta to get his man. The north Londoners are said to be in the market for a new midfielder this summer, with Thomas Partey expected to leave.
