Manchester City are considering the possibility of making a move for West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice in this summer's transfer window.
The Manchester Evening News understands that City, who will kick off their 2023/24 Premier League campaign with a trip to Turf Moor to face newly-promoted Burnley, are exploring a move for the England international as he plans to leave the London Stadium this summer. Rice has been heavily linked with England's leading clubs in recent years and he looks set to finally leave the Hammers in this current transfer window.
Arsenal have identified the 24-year-old as their primary transfer target this summer and have already seen an opening bid for him turned down. West Ham are understood to value Rice at £100million and the Gunners' bid fell short of their asking price.
