An historic Hammers day!
Today will become a huge day in Hammers history as one of our own becomes the most expensive player in British football!
For Declan Rice will reportedly undergo his Arsenal medical TODAY ahead of a club-record £105million move.
The midfielder, 24, is expected to finalise his switch from West Ham and become the most expensive British player in Prem history.
Declan has allegedly flown back from holiday and is ready to make the move to north London with West Ham now in a position to make their first moves in the summer window.
With the payment structure now sorted we have reached the point where a home grown Hammer – in price terms anyway – is seen as the best player in the country.
His rise to this position has been quite astonishing and a tribute to the club’s academy which was – and is starting to again – be seen as one of the best in the country.
Rice’s transfer will also see the Gunners smash the £72m they paid Lille for Nicolas Pepe back in 2019.
And with the departure of Granit Xhaka has been tipped to replace the Swiss midfielder and take up a new role.
