The Gunners are still on a the chase of West Ham top midfielder, Declan Rice, but they are set to face a battle with Manchester City, who are set to enter the race.
Declan Rice has refused to renew his contract with West Ham giving a big boost to interests from other clubs.
Despite interest by Manchester City, Arsenal are still leading the race to sign Declan Rice to fill in the gap left by Xhaka who has left the club this summer.
Arsenal are also expected to part ways with Ghana international, Thomas Partey, hence the Gunners will need more reinforcement for next season.
