West Ham captain Declan Rice retains hope of joining Arsenal this summer.

The England midfielder is preparing to leave the Hammers after the Europa Conference League final next week against Fiorentina.

Bayern Munich are interested in Rice, where coach Thomas Tuchel has recommended his signing.

But The Times says Rice is unsure about a switch to Munich and still favours staying in London and moving across town to Arsenal.

The Irons wish to sell Rice for £120m, though Arsenal aim to do business for around £90m.
