Guardian: Declan Rice 'favours' Arsenal move over Chelsea (reliability: 5 stars)

Declan Rice is 'favouring' a move to Arsenal over Chelsea in the summer transfer window, according to the Guardian.

The England international is likely to leave West Ham at the end of the season after turning down several contract renewal offers.

Rice, whose deal runs until the summer of 2024, will not be available on the cheap with the Hammers looking for offers of at least £80 million.

The prospect of moving to the Emirates and working under Mikel Arteta is said to 'appeal' to the 24-year-old but the Gunners are yet to make their move.
