According to the ‘Mirror’, Arsenal will try to complete Declan Rice’s transfer as soon as possible as Manchester City are considering signing him following Ilkay Gundogan’s departure.
The race for Declan Rice is getting tighter and tighter. Arsenal have had their eye on the Englishman for some time now, while Premier League giants Manchester City have joined the race in recent days.
The Sky Blues want to reinforce their midfield after Ilkay Gundogan’s departure. The German is expected not to renew his contract and to start a new stage at Xavi Hernandez’s Barcelona.
The Gunners have already presented West Ham with two bids for him but both were rejected. According to the ‘Mirror’, Mikel Arteta has been urged to convince Declan Rice to join the Emirates Stadium outfit as City’s offer could be better.
The same media outlet reports that Pep Guardiola’s side would be willing to pay £100 million for his transfer and the Hammers will accept the best offer that comes their way.
