Arsenal have already seen a bid for Declan Rice rejected but are now looking to make an improved offer which could see West Ham finally sell their coveted captain.

“In due time he will have to step in and we will have to get a replacement – or more replacements. We don’t want that.” We offered him £200,000 a week 18 months ago. He refused.
