TL;DR Summary

Manchester City has withdrawn from the race to sign West Ham captain Declan Rice after Arsenal increased their bid to £100 million plus £5 million in add-ons. Arsenal and West Ham are currently negotiating the payment structure, but City has stepped aside. If the deal goes through, it will be a Premier League record fee for a British player. Rice's contract at West Ham expires in 2024, and the club's chairman expects him to have played his last game for the team. Rice is known for his disciplined defensive play and has a high tackle win rate.
