Thomas Tuchel, manager of Bayern Munich, reportedly has his sights set on signing Declan Rice from Arsenal. A ‘strong likelihood’ exists that the 24-year-old will depart West Ham this summer, as even David Moyes confirmed on Saturday via Sky Sports.
While a move to Arsenal appeared certain, it now seems that Bayern Munich coach Thomas Tuchel is also interested in signing Declan Rice. Although Rice has received some criticism for his performances throughout the current campaign, the general consensus is that he is the genuine thing.
The England international, described as “phenomenal” by Mark Noble through the Manchester Evening News, can play in a variety of positions on the pitch.
Christian Falk, a journalist for Bayern Munich, recently said that manager Thomas Tuchel is ‘interested’ in completing a trade for Declan Rice, who is wanted by Arsenal. While the Bundesliga winners would want to sign him, they know they have competition from many English clubs.
Is Declan Rice rejecting Arsenal for Bayern Munich?
Even though English players often prefer to play in the Premier League, Declan Rice may have been persuaded to join Thomas Tuchel at Bayern Munich instead of joining Arsenal. Fortunately, the English Premier League is the richest in the world. So even the greatest clubs in the world may be blown away by the competition there.
Mikel Arteta would be overjoyed by this news since he will soon be in need of a replacement for Granit Xhaka, whose departure has been widely speculated about. Declan Rice, who has previously looked huge up front, might be the ideal choice to fill the Swiss international’s left midfield void.
