Manchester United "believe they can still convince Declan Rice of a move to Old Trafford in the summer", according to reports.
West Ham midfielder Rice is widely expected to depart the club during the next transfer window, having opened up on his desire to play in the Champions League while on international duty for England at the World Cup last year. The former Chelsea academy midfielder is said to be attracting interest from some of the Premier League's top clubs, with Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City all having been linked with the England international recently.
But, according to Football Insider, Manchester United are "hopeful" that they can persuade Rice to join Erik ten Hag's side, despite the player's wish to remain in London. The report adds that United "hope to blow Arsenal out of the water" for Rice, who is valued at around £150million by West Ham's boss David Moyes.
