[cont] Man City also checked player’s side — understand Rice is open to any move so deal depends on the clubs now.

Arsenal, planning to bid again since last week. ⚪️🔴 #AFC

      I’m not too worried just yet. City have the money but have a tendency to walk away when their transfer targets are over priced and I’m guessing West Ham will play hard ball a little bit, which will only chase away buyers when you are demanding 100m for a player on their last year of contract.

      I expect City to be as stingy with their offer as we were, and then back out after West Ham demand even more money.

        Believe rice has two years left but turned down a new contract.

      This will be a massive egg on the face of our recruitment team if they can’t land Rice. After what happened with Mudryk, I hope they have learned their lesson.

      What will be, will be. It’s really annoying of course, especially with Mudryk memories still fresh, but we can’t get into a crazy bidding war. All that matters is if Rice wants us.
