Arsenal FC hope to hand Declan Rice a new deal soon, with the midfielder understood to have decided to continue his career at the Emirates Stadium. The latest Declan Rice contract update comes shortly after Mikel Arteta committed his own future to Arsenal until 2030, with the club now working towards finalising the England international’s new deal.
