Manchester United intend to rival Arsenal for Declan Rice after David Moyes admitted the midfielder was likely to leave West Ham this summer.
Arsenal have been leading the race to sign Rice and are still regarded as his likeliest destination. They have been laying the groundwork before a bid and the 24-year-old is interested in playing for Mikel Arteta.
However Arsenal’s hopes could be hit if a bidding war for Rice develops, with West Ham indicating they want at least £100m for their captain.
Arsenal could be reluctant to reach those figures and there are growing indications that United are planning to step up their interest.
