Arsenal midfielder urges West Ham United move as Inter refuse to give up on Gunners star

Arsenal new boy Declan Rice is reportedly trying to persuade England team-mate Harry Maguire to join former club West Ham United.

The midfielder crossed London last month when he agreed to a record-breaking £105million move to the Emirates Stadium and there have several players linked with the Hammers as they look to make the most of the funds raised from the biggest sale in their history.

David Moyes has already completed the addition of Ajax and Mexico midfielder Edson Alvarez and is now reportedly prepared for hand over around £60million to sign Manchester United duo Harry Maguire and Scott McTominay as he looks to put a successful end on what has been a challenging summer for the former Everton boss.

His attempts to strengthen his squad have reportedly been given an unexpected boost by his former captain after The Sun revealed Gunners star Rice has ‘encouraged’ Maguire to swap life at Old Trafford for a move to the London Stadium before the transfer window closes in three weeks time.

Serie A giants ‘refuse’ to give up on bid for Gunners defender

Inter Milan are reportedly ready to continue their push to sign Arsenal star Takehiro Tomiyasu despite the Gunners insistance on retaining the services of the versatile defender.

FCInter1908 have claimed the Serie A club are hoping to add two new signings to their squad and are keen on both Tomiyasu and former Stoke City and West Ham forward Marko Arnautovic after he enjoyed a productive spell with league rivals Bologna.

The Gunners are reportedly refusing to sell Japan international Tomiyasu as he prepares to make his comeback from injury but Inter are determined to land the former Bologna full-back and are prepared to press on with a £16million offer to tempt Arsenal into authorising a deal.
