Arsenal's interest in both Declan Rice and Moises Caicedo is quite interesting, but something that makes a great deal of sense the stronger the links grow.
Regardless of what happens in this season's Premier League title race, it has become apparent that Mikel Arteta requires a deeper squad in order to get the Gunners challenging again next year - not to mention having Champions League football on offer for the first time since 2017.
As a result, one of the areas Arsenal look set to strengthen in is central midfield and football.london understands Rice is a priority signing ahead of the summer transfer window whilst the club showed strong interest in Caicedo back in January but were unable to reach an agreement with Brighton & Hove Albion.
