Their are definite signs that Arsenal fans are getting jittery about Declan Rice actually coming to Arsenal after it was revealed yesterday that West Ham having been getting very frustrated with the continuing delay, but there have been many more positive vibes in today’s media.
Fabrizio Romano has decided to reassure all Arsenal fans to stop worrying and just wait a little bit more patiently. He told CaughtOffside: “I know Arsenal fans are desperate to hear official announcements on Declan Rice, but I can’t control that.
“It’s not on journalists to say when clubs will announce deals, only the club can do this, but I’m not changing my position, despite rumours – I’m told it’s just a matter of announcement, Arsenal have everything ready for Declan Rice and Jurrien Timber.
“I already said that both deals are done, that’s it, nothing else. Only Arsenal can decide about announcements, and this is the same for any club.”
There is also confidence from the West Ham side, if this tweet is anything to go by….
There is no change in the Declan Rice situation. He is expected to release a goodbye video to West Ham and be officially announced either Friday or Saturday by Arsenal before joining up with their squad for the tour of the USA.

I’m praying it’s not happening and wait for January or next season to get him for less. 105m is a ridiculous amount of money(english tax bullcrap) to spend on a player of his quality. Do you people really believe he’s really worth it and an upgrade of Partey? Not for me atm. Would rather get Lavia who’s having a better skill set and higher ceiling to improve and way more cheaper of course. Martin Zubimendi is another good long term player to look after for a dm. Very intelligent player and quite tenacious. Maybe he’s available for half of Rice’s price too.
As a good-looking native London boy with good technical skills, aerial ability and international experience, Rice could significantly improve the impact of Arsenal’s advertising campaign for five years or longer
Lavia is also homegrown, but he’s not a local kid like Rice, Saka, Nketiah and Nelson. Zubimendi’s release clause is just £45m, but he’s also a foreigner
I think Arsenal would like a new great influencer or leader in the dressing room, after losing Xhaka. I don’t think Odegaard is as vocal and he may leave three years later
“Good-Looking native London Boy”???
‘Good Looking” sells merchandise. Going abroad I used to see pictures of David Beckham & Michael Owen everywhere. Not so much with Wayne Rooney, even though he was even better than either Owen or Beckham on the pitch.
Am more concern of Partey leaving without adequate replacement.
Declan Rice, Timber and Havertz are all in the bag my only concern here is , we need them as early as possible to build team chemistry and for the trio having a good preseason.
Im nt worried at all & believe he is the right signing.
ALWAYS FORWARD!! (capture & seize control gradually)
Well i don’t know if good looking has to be put into consideration too. Sounds a bit funny to me. For me qualities matter the most and players are judged on their performance and abilities. This club has slowly loosened its traditional value. I agreed, Declan Rice is a good footballer but the only thing that bothered me it’s his price tag. This is not the afc way of doing business.
@Malay will you give it a rest. After all it’s not your money and there is no way you know much about running a football club more than theose actually running it ok .. it’s just a waste of time and endless rant to keep on suggesting the players the club should buy as if that will in any way influence the players the club will bring in.
Well said mate. Yeah none of my money has been put into it but I just don’t really like how the club act like other big spender to get a player they want. It’s more thrilling to get a less known player and turn him into a star. Seems like I’ve still been stuck in the old days of Wenger’s vision. True, it’s just wasting of time to suggesting this and that when no one in the club take a note. I’ve been supporting this club for quite long and I really like the way they’ve been running it in the past which was different than any other top teams. Making them unique in their own way. Thanks Olamide for giving me a slap in the face to remind me to mind my own things. I haven’t been watched football much too lately so why should I bother much about it. I don’t know when either did i start to comment so much in the internet like I’m doing right now. Sometimes it’s a bit of fun for killing my time to read other people’s comments and thoughts. 😄
