Trustable source reveals date Arsenal will complete signing of Declan Rice

Football transfer news guru Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Arsenal plan to complete the deal to sign Declan Rice this summer. The 24-year-old midfielder scored four goals and provided two assists in the recently ended season, helping West Ham United escape relegation and win the UEFA Europa Conference trophy.

According to Romano, Arsenal will enter into crucial stages of the Declan Rice deal next week, with an official bid expected very soon after positive talks in recent days. The Gunners feel they are ahead of Bayern Munich as the player’s priority is to continue playing in England, but timing will be crucial for Arsenal.

The addition of Declan Rice would be a significant boost for Arsenal’s midfield. Rice is known for his versatility and ability to play as both a defensive midfielder and centre-back. He is also an excellent passer of the ball and has shown great leadership qualities on and off the pitch.

Rice has been linked with several top clubs across Europe, including Manchester United and Bayern Munich. However, it seems that Arsenal are now leading the race for his signature.

It remains to be seen how much Arsenal will have to pay for Rice’s services. West Ham United are likely to demand a significant transfer fee for their star midfielder, and negotiations could be complicated. However, if Arsenal can secure Rice’s signature, it would be a massive coup for the club and a sign of their ambition to compete at the highest level.
