Price to own Declan Rice

Declan Rice has emerged as Real Madrid's top target as the La Liga giants look for a new leader in midfield.

Rice is being pursued by Arsenal.

According to Spanish newspaper Fichajes , Real Madrid put the English star on their transfer priority list. The Royal team sees Rice as "the perfect piece for the present and future" of the midfield, thereby filling the gap left by Luka Modric and Toni Kroos.

However, to get the signature of the 26-year-old player, Real Madrid will have to spend a huge amount of money. Arsenal are said to be willing to negotiate only if they receive the full 130 million pounds - a price that reflects the true influence of Rice.

If it comes true, Rice will become the most expensive player sale for the Emirates Stadium club. In the transfer history, the "Gunners" once sold Alex Olade Chamberlain to Liverpool for more than 33 million pounds.

Since arriving at Emirates in the summer of 2023 for a transfer fee of £100 million, Rice has quickly become a mainstay in coach Mikel Arteta's system. He has contributed to Arsenal's domination of the Premier League this season with a 6-point lead over Man City, while also winning all 4 Champions League group stage matches without conceding a goal.

Such excellent form has made Rice considered one of the best midfielders in Europe today. Arsenal consider him the "tactical heart" of the squad and the symbol of a new generation at Emirates. That is the reason they are determined not to lower the player's price.
