Premier League club, Arsenal, are set to bid for West Ham captain, Declan Rice, at the end of the season.
Internal discussions at Arsenal are continuing over the possibility of signing the England midfielder, who was of interest to the Gunners back in January.
West Ham manager, David Moyes, has indicated there is a chance Rice could leave – provided the price is right.
Rice has a “gentleman’s agreement” that he can move in the summer – provided West Ham receive an offer worth £120 million, be that in a transfer fee or a transfer fee plus players.
Rice has one year left on his contract at West Ham – with the option of a further year.
Arsenal are also keeping an eye on Moises Caicedo’s situation at Brighton.

The Gunners had two bids rejected in January – the latest was worth £70 million.
Caicedo has since signed a new contract at Brighton – but manager Roberto De Zerbi told Sky Sports earlier this month that the player could leave in the summer.
Caicedo is understood to be “high on the list” of at least three other Premier League clubs.
Arsenal going for both Rice and Caicedo in the summer window has not been ruled out – but the prospect of bringing in both players would likely depend on money generated from possible sales.
Arsenal are also keeping an eye on a number of other midfielders, with Granit Xhaka expected to leave in the summer.
Chelsea’s Mason Mount and Manchester City captain, Ilkay Gundogan, have also emerged as potential targets.
Mount’s Chelsea contract is up next summer. The England midfielder has missed the last few weeks of Chelsea’s season due to injury.
Gundogan is out of contract this summer – last month, he said talks with City were ongoing.
City boss, Pep Guardiola, has made it clear he wants Gundogan to stay.
Arteta worked closely with Gundogan when he was assistant to Guardiola at City.
