West Ham are growing increasingly frustrated at the slow progress of the sale of Declan Rice to Arsenal.
Rice has been the Gunners' top target for much of the summer, with Mikel Arteta's side finally reaching a deal with the Hammers over the £105million fee eight days ago. Since then, Arsenal have been completing the final pieces of paperwork ahead of the move.
There is little sign that those final checks are nearing completion though, despite Rice reportedly already agreeing personal terms with the Gunners. Rice remains a West Ham player as it stands, with the England international currently training away from the Hammers.
