Pundit Gabby Agbonlahor has now predicted that West Ham United star Declan Rice will choose Arsenal over Chelsea this summer🍰.

Agbonlahor was speakiꦿng🐭 on and discussing the 24-year-old’s future.

Declan Rice is one of the most talented midfielders in the Premier League right no𒀰w.

A vital player for both club and country, i♏t seems as though his time at the London Stadium is coming to an end.

He admitted during the World Cup that it was his 𝓀ambition to play very soon.

That’s som✃ething h🍌e simply won’t be able to achieve at West Ham.

Righ🤡t now, they’ll be more concerned about Prem𝓀ier League survival than European qualification.

Arsenal are keen admirers of Rice, a꧃nd arꦡe in the market for a player in his position.

Moves for Moises Caicedo and Douglas Luiz both fell through in the last ꦫtw💫o transfer windows

Mikel Arteta’s side will have to try again in theܫ summer to sign that desir🐬ed midfielder.

Agbonlahor now believes Rice woul💞d prefer a move to Arsenal over boyhood club Chelse🍨a.

The project being built at The Emirates may be impossible to ignore for the ‘world class’ England international.

Agbonlahor predicts Rice to choose Arsenal this summer

Asked by 🎶 presenter Alan Brazil about the midfielder, Agbonlahor said: “I think he would rather Chelsea maybe, he was there as a kid, but he got let go.

“You’ve got Enzo Fernandez🔯 there, that they’ve just signed. They’ve got a lot of midfielders Chelsea, and the way Arsenal are playing at the moment, he might look at the project under Arteta and think ‘Why not?’

“’I could go in there, Jorginho isn’t going to be playing 𒐪much, Thomas Partey is always injured’, Declan Rice gets into that side, he keeps his place, he keeps those two players out p🍌robably next season.

“So, I think Declan Rice will join Arsenal.”

A recent report from suggested Arsenal are in pole position to sign Rice this summer.

The Gunners are in a brillia𓆉nt position in the league, and have an exciting crop🍌 of talent to choose from.

Rice would go into the squad as one of the m💮ore exper❀ienced players, and would likely be seen as a leader by Arteta.

He would provide serious competition for both Partey and Graꩵnit Xhaka if he did make the move in the summer.

Arsenal fans will be hoping Agbonlahor’s prediction comes true and Declan Rice becomes a Gunner in the ওsummer.
