Manchester United have been advised they could challenge Arsenal for Declan Rice by including one of their players in any transfer bid.
Rice is expected to command a fee of up to £120 million this summer, with Manchester United and Arsenal the most likely candidates to seal his signature, although Liverpool and Chelsea continue to be named as interested parties. The 23-year-old has made 201 Premier League appearances, with 41 England caps to his name.
The West Ham captain has been the subject of interest for a number of years, but his performances for the Hammers and at the World Cup with England this season underline his quality. Harry Kane is also believed to be on Erik ten Hag's radar and such a transfer would severely dent United's summer budget.
