Arsenal have completed the signing of West Ham United captain Declan Rice in a deal worth £105 million, making it the most expensive signing in the club's history. Rice has signed a five-year contract at the Emirates Stadium.
Manager Mikel Arteta hailed the signing as "transformative," noting that Rice brings "leadership, intensity, and technical quality" to an already impressive squad. Rice, 27, will anchor Arsenal's midfield alongside Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka.
The England international expressed his delight, saying Arsenal's ambition and style of play were key factors in his decision. With this signing, Arsenal are now considered serious contenders for the Premier League title alongside Manchester City.
