Manchester City have decided to pull out of the race to sign Declan Rice from West Ham.
The Premier League champions are not interested in entering a bidding war for the England midfielder.
This follows Arsenal’s third offer of £100 million upfront and £5 million in add-ons.
Transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, stated on his verified tweeter handle on Wednesday, 28 June, 2023.
“Manchester City to leave Declan Rice as internal discussion took place today — after Arsenal record bid submitted on Tuesday.
“City have no intention to enter into a bidding war, as always. No plans to match £105m proposal. Over to Arsenal and West Ham now,” Romano said.
