Declan Rice, 24, has been heavily tipped to leave West Ham, with the Gunners allegedly in a very strong position to sign him.
Hammers boss David Moyes will obviously want to keep Dec at the London Stadium but if Mikel Arteta comes knocking, it might well be nigh on impossible to prevent him from moving to the Emirates.
And it seems as though certain Arsenal figures are doing their best to get very friendly indeed with the West Ham skipper…
Declan Rice filmed laughing and joking with Bukayo Saka and Ian Wright
The 24-year-old Hammers captain is on international duty with England, alongside Arsenal star Saka, 21.
Fans of the Gunners will undoubtedly be very keen for Arteta to bring Rice to the Emirates in the summer transfer window.
And it seems as though one of their stars and a Gooner legend has been trying to get in Dec’s ear whilst out in Italy…
It still remains to be seen where Rice will be playing his football next season.
It has actually been claimed by club insiders that the Hammers have not yet received any formal enquiries for the 24-year-old.
It will be a sad day whenever he does move on from the London Stadium, but it’s a formality that most of us have come to terms with now.
That said, seeing Declan Rice so close with Bukayo Saka and Ian Wright whilst on international duty with England is still hard to take.
