Transfer: Arsenal submit record-breaking £105m bid for Declan Rice

Arsenal have made a third bid for West Ham midfielder, Declan Rice, worth £105 million which, if accepted, would make him the most expensive British player ever.

The deal breaks down as a £100 million initial fee, plus £5 million in performance-related add-ons.

The offer smashes Arsenal’s transfer record – the £72 million they paid Lille for Nicolas Pepe in 2019.

Carlo Ancelotti has resolved his legal suit against former club Everton after a dispute between the parties over a £2 million bonus payment.

Roma are set to lose Paulo Dybala this summer with Al Hilal one of the Saudi clubs interested in signing him for a cut-price £10 million.
