Arsenal have returned to the negotiation table with a new bid for West Ham's Declan Rice after their first offer was rejected.
Arsenal have reportedly made a second, improved bid for West Ham's Declan Rice after their initial offer was knocked back.
The 24-year-old England international is the Gunners' prime summer target, and although he has one year left on his Hammers contract, with an option to extend for one more year, his employers still want above £100 million for him.
Arsenal's second bid
According to the Athletic's David Ornstein, the Mikel Arteta-coached side have sent a bid worth £90 million for the defensive midfielder.
