A new issue has hit the Declan Rice move to Arsenal and it’s having a damaging impact on West Ham United’s own transfer plans.

Departing West Ham captain Declan Rice’s move to Arsenal continues to drag on.

The British record £105m transfer – which is also a record buy for the Gunners and record sale for the Hammers – has become one of the sagas of the summer transfer window.

Many believed the deal would be announced a couple of weeks ago. Then reports stated it would be last week. Last weekend was the next alleged timescale for the unveiling by Arsenal.

It was then revealed that Rice had gone on holiday to Portugal and won’t be back until later this week, delaying the official move from West Ham to Arsenal further still.

Now a new issue hits the Rice move to Arsenal and it’s having a damaging impact on West Ham.

According to a report from Sky Sports overnight, the hold up is very much at the Arsenal end.

Because West Ham are waiting for Arsenal’s lawyers to rubber stamp the deal so it can be completed.
