Premier League giants Arsenal face serious competition in their pursuit of Declan Rice.

The West Ham United midfielder is the no.1 target for the Gunners this summer.

Mikel Arteta's side are determined to improve their squad, after they failed to stay with Manchester City in the race for the Premier League title.

Per Bild in Germany, Bayern Munich have registered their desire to sign Rice with West Ham.

Manager Thomas Tuchel is a huge admirer, having watched Rice first hand in the Premier League for several years.

However, most British sources do suggest that Arsenal are favourites to secure his signature.
