BREAKING: Gunners Biggest Transfer As Declan Rice Joins #Arsenal From West ham On £105m Deal—-The Genius Media Nigeria reports that Arsenal have agreed a £105m deal to sign West Ham captain Declan Rice.

The transfer specialist noted that the Hammers have communicated to the Gunners that they will accept the deal worth £100million plus £5million in add-ons.

Romano added that the East London outfit want the £100million transfer fee for Rice to be paid within the next 18 months.

The structure of the payments are still being discussed between the two clubs, but Rice is now free to discuss personal terms and look at having his medical.

Arsenal have already had two club-record bids rejected by the Irons – a £90m bid comprising a £75m fee and £15m in add-ons and an opening offer thought to be worth £80m plus add-ons.

The offer smashes Arsenal’s transfer record – the £72m they paid Lille for Nicolas Pepe in 2019.

Rice has spent his entire professional career with West Ham and led the club to the Europa Conference League title as his last act.

Mikel Arteta, who has mostly relied on Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka and Martin Odegaard as his midfielders last season, has been keen to strengthen in that area of the field. He looks to have got his No 1 target.
