Arsenal transfer news: Declan Rice has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal ahead of the summer transfer window
“We promised him he could go. He set his heart on going. You can’t ask for a man who has committed more to us this season. In due course, he has to get on and we have to get a replacement – or several replacements."
There's an even bigger boost coming to Arteta and his staff though, despite the competition of some other elite clubs for the England international's future. According to German outlet Ran Sport, Rice has told the Hammers hierarchy that Arsenal are the team he wants to join over Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
The reports also states that former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is personally pushing to land the midfielder at Bayern, meeting with the player and his father in London. There still remains plenty of time in the transfer window for things to change though, meaning Arsenal cannot take any of this lightly as their pursuit continues.
