REVEALED: Why Arsenal are yet to announce Declan Rice's arrival almost two weeks after they struck a £105m deal for the West Ham star... as they race to have him on pre-season tour of USA

Declan Rice's move to Arsenal is still yet to be completed - despite West Ham agreeing a deal for their captain to leave nearly two weeks ago.

David Moyes' side struck a club-record £105million deal, worth £100m up front plus £5m in add-ons, to sell star defensive midfielder Rice to the Gunners.

The move is set to happen imminently but the north London side have not yet formally announced or officially completed it despite manager Mikel Arteta wanting him to travel on their pre-season tour of the USA.

And the reason why has now been revealed.
