Excitement for Arsenal fans as date for Declan Rice’s medical is revealed
Arsenal has been pushing to sign Declan Rice since the summer transfer window opened and it now seems like its coming to an end as the gunners have got their man.
Journalist James Benge has provided an update on the impending transfer of Declan Rice to Arsenal, revealing that the player’s medical is scheduled for Friday. Benge took to Twitter to share this information, stating that while the formalities of the club record deal may take longer than a day to finalize, there is not much time left before the transfer is completed.
According to Benge, Arsenal and West Ham have reached an agreement on the transfer fee for Rice, which stands at a staggering £105 million. This fee will be paid in three installments over a period of 24 months. With this crucial aspect settled, Rice is now set to undergo a medical examination before signing his contract with Arsenal.
The personal terms of Rice’s contract have already been agreed upon, with the player set to earn a minimum of £250,000 per week. This substantial wage package reflects Arsenal’s determination to secure the services of one of England’s most promising young talents.
If all goes according to plan, Rice will become Arsenal’s second signing in the summer transfer window. The club has already completed the acquisition of 24-year-old Kai Havertz from Chelsea for a reported fee of £65 million. With these two high-profile signings, Arsenal aims to strengthen their squad ahead of the upcoming season and compete at the highest level.
Rice’s potential move to Arsenal has generated significant excitement among fans and pundits alike. The 24-year-old midfielder has established himself as one of West Ham’s standout performers in recent years and has also become an integral part of Gareth Southgate’s England squad.
Known for his composure on the ball, defensive solidity, and ability to dictate play from midfield, Rice possesses all the attributes required to thrive at a top club like Arsenal. His versatility allows him to operate as both a holding midfielder and a center-back, providing valuable options for manager Mikel Arteta.
While it remains unclear how long it will take to finalize all the necessary paperwork for Rice’s transfer, Arsenal fans can rest assured that their club is making significant strides in the transfer market. With the imminent arrival of Rice, alongside Havertz, Arsenal’s ambitions for the upcoming season are clear – to challenge for major honors and reestablish themselves as one of English football’s powerhouses.
