Rio Ferdinand has warned Declan Rice that he will need to step up to another level after making the move from West Ham to Arsenal. The midfielder is set to seal a move to the Gunners worth a potential £105 million with a medical booked in.
The England international has long been set to leave West Ham with Chelsea looking the most likely destination for a number of years. However, as football.london reported in January, the Gunners made Rice their top priority for the summer window and have now moved to get their man.
Rice has been in great form for England and West Ham, leading David Moyes' side to the Europa Conference League title, but the midfielder has been warned he will need to step up with a team who will be regularly expected to challenge for trophies.
