Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice are England’s leading midfielders now and both players have been linked with a move to Arsenal.
Rice plays in the Premier League for West Ham, while Bellingham plays for Borussia Dortmund in Germany.
Gareth Southgate named both players in his squad for the Qatar 2022 World Cup and they have been playing prominent roles for the Three Lions.
They are also set to leave their present clubs in the nearest future, but which of them can do an excellent job for Arsenal at the Emirates?
Former Gunners man Kevin Campbell believes they should go for Rice if they have to choose between the two.
He told The Highbury Squad: “I truly believe this is the truth. If you are going to pay £100m, who would you buy? Would you buy Bellingham or would you buy Rice?
“I’d buy Rice. All day long. Bellingham is good and he is younger.
“But the game Rice has is perfect for what we have or what we are going to need. I am thinking he is a natural successor to Thomas Partey, who does things in a different way, but he can control a game himself, like Bellingham.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Rice has been one of the finest players in England over the last few seasons and is constantly linked with a big-money move away from West Ham.
It is only a matter of time before he leaves, so we must act fast to be one of the favourites for his signature when he wants to leave.

Please don’t be so stupid. Declan would have no interest whatsoever in moving to Arsenal. He wants a step up, not sideways.
Sideways? Perhaps you should tune in and check out the table this year.
Would you prefer your crow baked or fried when you eat it?
Arteta has shown a steady progression the last couple seasons; in results, philosophy, and the type of squad he is building.
Arsenal have fought off City so far this season, and sit at the top clear by 5 points. To suggest that West Ham is on that level with the “Sideways” comment vastly overrates a struggling West Ham club.
On second thought, keep underestimating Arsenal, it seems to work out well for us in terms of points and results.

To assert that West Ham is on the same level as Arsenal is rather stupid.
Durand and jo-gunz,you have spoken the truth, this Bish guy seems to be blind and doesn’t follow how premier league is now.Let him check on the table before comparing Arsenal to west-ham.
100M for either of the two overrated and overpriced midfielders would be a massive waste of money. What’s the English tax? 50-60M!
Danilo is the smart buy and will develop under Partey and into our system.
Both would improve us in my opinion but Bellingham would significantly increases our chances of lifting that big jug in May.
Bellingham has an abundance of creativity to his game.
