Will the West Ham star stay in the Premier League ahead of the next season?

Bayern Munich have reportedly pulled out of the transfer race for Declan Rice amid Arsenal’s efforts to sign the midfielder.

The Bavarians considered Rice as a serious option to bolster their midfield line this summer. However, it seems that West Ham’s asking price has convinced the Bundesliga champions to look for another option.

According to Sky Sports Germany, Bayern have decided against submitting an official bid for Rice. Interest from Arsenal has reportedly increased the Hammers’ asking price for the 24-year-old.

The Gunners have intensified their efforts to sign Rice in recent weeks. A £90m offer from the London side could convince West Ham to sell the midfielder this summer.

Rice is reportedly keen to continue his career in England, with Arsenal now leading the race to sign him. The Gunners, however, could still face competition from Manchester United, who are also in the market to sign a new midfielder.

With Rice being out of the picture, Bayern could shift their attention toward Sofyan Amrabat in the coming weeks.
The Morocco international has emerged as a target for the Bavarians due to his fantastic displays at Florentine. In addition to Bayern, Barcelona are reportedly considering a move for the midfielder after Sergio Busquets’ departure.
