Arsenal aim for Rice
Erik ten Hag was 'threatened' by Declan Rice against West Ham, with the England international's performance enough to see him 'burst' to the top of the Manchester United manager's summer wish list.
Arsenal are believed to be a strong candidate in the race for Rice, who is also closely linked with a move to Chelsea, but The Sun claimed the 24-year-old's performance at the London Stadium on Sunday was enough to convince everyone in the world at United. that they should do whatever it takes to land him this summer.
According to reports, Ten Hag was "threatened" by Rice's performance, in which a source revealed:
“Rice quickly became United's number one summer target.
“He completely ran the game and United's coaching staff and scouts were all talking about him after the game.
"There is a growing belief that Rice wants to leave at the end of the season and United feel they just need to make sure he goes north and not Arsenal or Chelsea." "The club see him as a player they have the ability to build a team around."
The source added:
'Declan is good friends with Marcus and Luke Shaw from England.
"Man Utd believe they can convince Rice that his future is between them in Manchester."
"It would be a huge sign of intent and a great way for any new owner to show that they are committed to trying to equal Manchester City in the years to come."
But Ally McCoist has warned Rice against United this summer, with recent performances under Ten Hag setting off "alarm bells".
He told talkSPORT:
"I would be really worried if he went to Manchester United at the moment, I have to be honest.
“I think they did really, really well. I have to say and should say two national cup finals and win the League Cup. If they can win the FA Cup they will be the second candidate and finish in 4th place, I think it's a season more than acceptable. I think it's been a very good season.
"However, the last two games have set off alarm bells in my head while watching them. I think they're probably farther away than I thought. So I'm not sure he'll get there.
“The Liverpool midfielder is crying over Declan Rice, absolutely screaming.
“Chelsea have a great midfield but I don't know if they spend that much money.
“I would say that the amount of money wasted was more than half a billion pounds, you end up in 12th and 13th place, which is not great.
“I have to be brutally honest here; if you are an Arsenal fan this is the hit of the season.
