Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke has given a thumbs up to the club's possible move for Declan Rice.

The Gunners are serious about signing the West Ham United midfielder in the summer.

Per The Telegraph, despite the cost associated with signing Rice, Kroenke has given the move his blessing.

Arsenal will have to fund a £92 million deal if they are serious about securing Rice.

West Ham, who are in the Europa Conference League final, face a huge fight to hold onto their captain.

Manager David Moyes has even admitted in recent weeks that Rice is likely to leave.
