The England International has been one of the most prolific midfielder in the Premier League over the years. Due to his exploits, Manchester United, Chelsea and Bayern Munich have also identified as a summer target.
However reports suggests that Rice have agreed personal terms with Arsenal. Manager Mikel Arteta viewing him as a players who can help to Mount another title challenge next season.
Carragher suggests only Manchester City can guarantee success for players on the move this summer, but is also convinced that Rice will take Arsenal to another level. He told on the Overlap this week :-
“It is difficult with Declan Rice, and I think Harry Kane falls into this one too, they are at clubs that probably aren’t going to challenge for the Premier League or Champions League.
“But unless you go to Man City, there is no guarantee you are going to come out with trophies that you want.
“But you want to give yourself the opportunity and the tough question for Arsenal heading into next season is whether this was a one off or whether they can be consistent and challenging the biggest sides because it hasn’t happened for a long time.
“I always felt he [Rice] would end up at Chelsea, but he could go to Arsenal and it could go great for him. He’s a step up from what they’ve got but there is no guarantee he will go onto win the biggest trophies with them.
