The transfer rumors surrounding Declan Rice and Arsenal became more intense after the West Ham midfielder was seen receiving Arsenal’s signed shirt from captain Martin Odegaard following a 2-2 draw at London Stadium.
Declan Rice has been linked with a move to the Gunners for some time and recent events have only fueled speculation that the 24-year-old could soon move to the North London club. West Ham came back after going two goals down to hold the league leaders to a draw. And after the game, Rice was seen receiving a signed Arsenal shirt from the Norwegian in the tunnel.
It was the second time in the Premier League that the Gunners squandered their 2-0 lead and lost points at the last minute. Despite the draw, Arsenal is still 4 points ahead of Manchester City, but Pep Guardiola’s army has one match yet to play.
Speculation surrounding Rice and Arsenal has been growing for some time, but recent events have only added fuel to the fire. It is reported that the Gunners are very interested in bringing Rice to the club and are ready to offer him a lucrative contract.
Whatever the outcome, all eyes will be on Declan Rice in the coming weeks as speculation surrounding his future continues to build. With the transfer window approaching, it won’t be long before we know if the 24-year-old will join Arsenal or stay at West Ham.
