Arsenal's interest in West Ham star Declan Rice will accelerate in the coming weeks as the Premier League season comes to an end. The Gunners have been linked with the midfielder for some time now and are due to make their first official move in the summer.
football.london reported back in January that Mikel Arteta and sporting director Edu Gaspar are prioritising a move for the England international.
Rice will cost Arsenal close to £100million at the season, with the Hammers' Premier League status secured over the weekend. The midfielder's deal at the London Stadium is set to expire next June, with West Ham having an option to extend by a further year.
