Pep Guardiola believed that Declan Rice could have developed into a world-class multi-functional midfielder if had joined Manchester City this summer.
City had joined Arsenal in bidding for the West Ham midfielder following an outstanding campaign for David Moyes’ side. The Hammers have already received four bids for their star player, with City submitting one and the Gunners three.
Arsenal are back in pole position having submitted an offer worth a whopping £105million for Rice on Tuesday night. That came after City tabled an offer of £80m plus £10m in add-ons to try and prise the 24-year-old from Arsenal’s grasp.
