BREAKING: Manchester City Launch Declan Rice Transfer Bid?—According to report MANCHESTER CITY are reportedly set to launch a transfer bid for Declan Rice TODAY – sparking an incredible three-way battle for his signature.
The star’s future looks like it will turn into one of the summer’s longest-running transfer sagas.
Arsenal have seemed like the favourites to sign Rice but have so far seen a pair of bids rejected by West Ham United.
The Gunners’ failure to meet West Ham’s £100million valuation is set to open the door for other clubs, including Manchester United.
However, West Ham are interested in Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips, and that could put the Treble-winners in pole position.
Now David Ornstein is claiming that City are expected to submit an offer to West Ham on Thursday and they have “serious interest” in Rice.
The ace, who lives in Kingston-upon-Thames, has previously stated he wants to remain close to his hometown to Gary Neville on The Overlap Extra, saying: “I’m here [Kingston] all the time.
“I’ve always wanted to stay close to this place. I feel like I don’t want to lose my roots.”
