Arsenal are making an improved offer of £100million for Declan Rice after seeing their first bid rejected by West Ham.

The Gunners have seen their original offer, worth £90million, for the Hammers skipper turned down - but a new package is imminent.

The rejected bid was worth £80million plus an extra £10m in performance related add-ons.

The new offer is expected to guarantee West Ham in the region of £90million plus extra payments that will take the total deal to £100million.

However, sources were indicting on Thursday that the total value of the bid isn’t the only remaining issue that requires ironing out before Rice can complete his move to the Emirates.
